Through Bertie We Discover The Beauty In The Drainpipes Of Wells

We are having the most wonderful time in Wells having Young Master Bertie all to ourselves and he is proving to be very much his Uncle Nigel’s nephew in his diverse interests and insatiable curiosity.

The Bishops Moat is stunningly beautiful, however said beauty wasn’t what captured Young Master Bertie’s imagination as much as …….

We have given the young master Andy’s (Grandy-Andy in heaven) old camera having kept it for such a special occasion …….

……. and it has to be said that he has taken to this new exciting tool/toy like to a duck to water.

……… so logically …… is it the historic vistas and beautiful Somerset views that have taken the young master’s interest and been captured for posterity?
IMG_20181006_175138 Erm ……. no …… it’s the drainpipes, be they plastic or metal! Whenever we are out and about, they are what young Bertie points out to us to oooooo and ahhhhh at, he even taps and inspects them sagely just like Grandy-Andy was apt to do.  What is he like?

Still David Bailey had to start somewhere ……….

Young Master Bertie is growing up quickly. He looks to have a good eye too.

This is such s wonderful post! From the passing on of Andy’s camera to Bertie’s passion for drainpipes and to him mastering photography at such a young age. You’ve made my Monday!
