[HPFGU-OTChatter] UK Castle questions

[Catherine Keegan]

Warick Castle is wonderful.  They have a splendid exhibition called 
"Kingmaker" that consists of a series of dioramas about Warwick 
himself.  Close by is the fabulous Beauchamp Chapel in the local church.  I 
had a great time there.  The fellow playing the local knight is very 
funny.  We were lucky enough to get there on a slow day and got to talk to him.

Planning trips is almost as much fun as going on them.  Almost.
