In the style to which I wish to become accustomed

Friends with rather more money than I am ever likely to possess, treated me to coffee and cakes at a local luxury hotel. Sadly it tipped it down with rain, so I missed out on a tour of the grounds. But I did manage a quick photo of the courtyard before the rain started.

If anyone is interested, I can attest to the fact that the new five pound notes cope well inside the washing machine. Step counters, alas, less well.
