Scope and content

Thanks WW for his account of the build up to the Cambridge election. RS is surprised no date has been set for the day of the actual election: 'I don't feel quite easy at being so far off for I wish to vote though I don't like our candidate and I should not like to be left in the lurch'. RS was very impressed with the York Minster. He has also been twice to Kirkstall: 'it is interesting from being one of the earliest painted arches we have'. AS gives his views on its architecture. He is looking forward to visiting Lincoln.
