I spent a lovely visit to my friends Mike and Louise this week and, despite slightly stormy weather, we got out and about. On Tuesday we went to Raglan Castle, southwest of Monmouth. The castle is a labyrinth covering about five stories from deep basement to the top of towers. I love the Google information [Condition: Ruined], accurate but a little limited. The weather had rapidly moving showers and we seemed to dodge them all except in the car. The star of the set is Odo the dog and we were pleased that he was welcome. An impressive device was the drinks dispenser in one of the basements.
