A steep learning curve

I had to go to the hairdressers this morning so took the bus instead of the car.  Bedford is our local town but somewhere I rarely go, it's so depressing, and today didn't win me over either.

The bus makes a detour into one of the really pretty villages and I had noticed on the way in that some thatching was being carried out on a terrace of little cottages, so on the way back I had my camera ready and was lucky that someone wanted to get off at the stop opposite them.

My new toys have arrived.
