Birmingham, Saturday 28 November, 2009.

First things first. After parking up we head for Birmingham Cathedral where they serve the best cup of tea (50p with a free biccie) in town. Today, we get the added bonus of the choir rehearsing for this afternoon's Evensong Service.















It's that time of year when, with Xmas still weeks away and the decs all in place, the German Market (bigger than ever) comes to town. Here Vic is refusing to encourage young men intent on getting warm on ice-cold flagons of foaming German lager. Quite right too.









Don't buy. Just look.
