Any Ordinary Passage
It's a grey and crisp day, just right for walking across Westminster Bridge (unless it starts raining, which will ruin the effect). This I must do because I need to go to Lambeth Palace, and look at some early 17th C. bishops' inquiries, to see if they mention plays.
If they do, they'll look like this:
Is there any ordinary passage vsed through the Church, or any common walking therein, or carrying of burdens, or playing of children? Or haue any other Playes, Feasts, Banquets, Suppers, Churchales, Drinkings, Temporall Courts, Leets or Lay-juries, Musters, exercise of dancing, stool-ball, foot-ball, or the like, or any Faires, or Markets, boothes, stalls or standings; or any other profane vsage beene suffered to be kept in your Church, Chappell, or Churchyard?
And if so, then I write it down and put it in my book. What can I say. It's a living.
Daisy-Winifred is right (see the comments from the previous entry); the British Library is extraordinarily sexy. Yep. Not the sort of library where it looks like you're sitting inside a chest of drawers. Nope. Raw book energy.
Love that place.
But I'm very fond of going to Lambeth Palace. I've never toured Lambeth Palace -- I don't know about its palacey bits. I just know the library, which is pretty non-descript, though it has some nice window views. For your break, there's a tea machine. Not much fun. But what I love is GOING to Lambeth Palace. I like to SAY I'm going to Lambeth Palace -- notice, for instance, that so far in this blog alone I've told you several times already that I'm going to Lambeth Palace -- and I like very much getting there -- I take the tube to Westminster, and walk over the bridge, and it's lovely.
When I go to Lambeth Palace.
Which, as I mentioned, I believe, I'm about to do.
I see that I've still got some time here at the cyber cafe -- enough, I believe, to write you some more tomorrow.
so tomorrow I'll come back and explain to you how to get to Wisbech.
(Sorry if you needed to know it today.)
