No Leeds

So let's kick 2019 off with a combo of two things I've been meaning to do for a while.

About three years ago I got told by a seven year old that I hadn't travelled much because I'd not been to Leeds Castle. Not that I take teasings from children seriously, but we can't be having that, right? So Leeds Castle. Boom. It's a proper castle with a moat and a whole heap of history. It always worries me in places like that with regard to how little history I know, especially from way back when in 100 year war times.

People have been saying Colchester Zoo is one of the best zoos in the country for a few years now. Back when I was a pup this was a standard day out, but I don't think I've been since I was twelve. It's changed quite a bit and is impressive in both its size and its selection. I'm still just not quite sure what I think about zoos. Still, the otters seemed happy.
