We went to Montolieu today. It is a book village, somewhere along the lines of Hay-on-Wye upon which it was based. Despite all the bibliographic detail one could photograph and loads of picturesque scenery in the end I went to this wooden creation that one of the galleries has "hung" from the roof of a seating area for one of the cafes. 

This is the only spider I think Her Ladyship has ever seen which didn't require screaming and the order to "kill it, now!".
