YSP

Decided to detour off the motorway on the long drive home.
We hadn't been to Yorkshire Sculpture Park for 25 years and it's (naturally) changed. A not good change is that it now charges, and today they weren't letting people in without a prepaid (Internet) ticlet
 We gave up and drove to the next carpark to at least let Missy have a wander. Followed the trail of people through an unlocked (as in no lock at all) gate, and found ourselves in the YSP. Hmmm
I'm really not a fan of exclusivity or elitism
 Charging people to access art simply makes art unaccessible for many, then makes it unattainable and eventually makes it irrelevant. Elitism at work. Exactly the same thing that the Lake District National Park and the National Trust are doing regarding accessing the outdoors.

All that said we ended up in the Damian Hirst sector... So only just art lol
