Re: York Minster
Hello John,
What a nice story. I wish I lived closer.
Actually it reminds me of the debate I once had in the tourist office in Guildford. To mark the "Heritage Weekend" on which so many buildings usually closed are open to the public, they arranged for a big banner to be hung across the width of the High Street totally ruining any middle- or long-distance view of the historic street and some of it's best features including the clock.
When I pointed out that on that particular weekend it was a good chance that more people than usual would be in the town and wanting to take pictures that did not feature said bloody great banner I was met with a blank stare and the response "why?"
Aargh.
Regards,
Bill
