Leeds & A Bunch of Medievalists

The reason for our 4 day stay in Leeds was Lindsay’s attendance & participation in the International Medieval Congress hosted by Leeds University and attended by 1500 people from around the world.  It was held in part at Weetwood Hall, the hotel where we stayed.  Because the exchange rate is so good at the moment, I thought it a good opportunity to look at upgrading my camera and spent my 4 days in Leeds researching and talking to people in camera shops, driving myself crazy in the process.  I eventually bought one on the last day.
