This is the original part of the abbey. It's a late 15th century or so gate that used to protect the original abbey. It's the part that's haunted by dead religious things. The gate itself is very small but the field leading up to it is huge. It's as long as a football pitch and the size of the field makes it seem that much more grand.

We have bats in the gate leading to our flats. They were dive-bombing Sarah yesterday. We watched it happening and the bats were getting within a foot of her head as she walked through the gate. They hate us.

I'm heading to London today. Back to civilization. We got Skydish yesterday and a telephone the day before so we're getting to a point where we're actually getting more comfortable. It only takes a tv to get back to the realities of life. Until now, I hadn't really realized how much of life you could learn from watching 'Friends'. That Joey has shown me the way.
