9) Inside the John Rylands Library - I don't know what this is depicting.
10) A bit of an Animal......Animal mugs. The Cat ones are for me and Sue!

I hope you enjoy looking at the pics as much as I enjoyed taking them.
I really like the totem - there's a lot of detail in it when you zoom in. The architectural details are wonderful in that building - I would love being in it too. The figures in No.9 are a puzzle: the guy on the left seems to be holding a ball of yarn, the middle figure carries a book, and the guy on the right looks like Bacchus with a goblet of vino! There must be some significance to it but darned if I know!
