Roamys first outing to a Traditional English Pub

We visited The Tame Otter public house which dates back to the early 1800's

and is set alongside the canal between Lichfield and Tamworth in Staffordshire.

 

 

After viewing all the local brews and chatting with the barstaff

young Roamy decided upon a thimble-full of the 'Cornish Trawler'

 

 

 

Enjoying the Pub Beer Garden, Roamy makes a new friend in Peter Rabbit

 

Lichfield Cathedral. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lichfield_Cathedral

Dating back to 1195 Lichfield Cathedral is the is the only medieval English cathedral with three spires.

 

 

 

The outside of the West front is covered in statues of Norman and Saxon kings,

disciples of Jesus and prophets of the Old Testament.

 Roamy took an instant liking to St Andrew 

 

 

 

 and couldn't wait to get his photo taken against this impressive backdrop

and the streetlamp wrought ironwork gave him an ideal perch to rest a while

whilst taking it all in

 

Beacon Park. Lichfield

Please read the sign

 

It seems that Spring may have sprung in England and Roamy takes advantage

 of soaking up a bit of sunshine amongst the Daffodils, Primulas and Tulips

 

 

 

 

Roamy isn't the only one enjoying the warmth on the cobblestones

 

 

The Tudor Tea Rooms. Lichfield http://www.tudorrow.com/tudoroflichfield.htm

Built when King Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon ruled England

 this fabulous Tudor Building is now home to a quaint tea room and chocolate shop

 

 

 

 

Roamy obviously loving the look of the sugar mice and home-made chocolates

 

 

After keeping the shop-owners waiting 23minutes trying to make a choice,

 he finally plumps for a rabbit adorned chocolate lollipop - Delicious!

before heading off to another part of the UK - Wales.
