i’m not sure if this is telling us to do something beautiful, or suggesting that lyttelton was/is beautiful.  i suspect it’s a cry of desperation for the former

in fact, the pie shop seemed to be the only thing in sheffield.  but what more do you need in life ?

there’s plenty more photos to come and we’ll definitely be going again to see the rest of the stuff we didn’t have time for on this trip.
