St Paul's Cathedral
St Paul's Cathedral

It was a dreary wet Saturday, but we'd booked tickets to look around St Paul's so headed up to London.
I visit a lot of churches, which is odd as I have absolutely no religion. I tend to disapprove of the immense wealth that's been spent on holy buildings but the fittings and fitments are often ornate from a detail point of view - definitely not something we see in our everyday lives at the other end of the scale.
Interesting that the construction cost was covered by a special tax on coal.
