The best things in life are free

Today's outing was to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, paid parking £4, but free entry and someone else passed us their parking ticket as they drove out so free. Anyway it's a huge manor with gardens and fields full of all manor of sculptures, works range from a 15 year old refugees first works through to a few Andy Goldsworthys.



Perhaps the most spectacular was this 'deer shelter' - A room with a light lock, and a simple hole in the roof, sloping walls and the feeling of having been transformed to another world where time, space and perception were all slowed down somehow ? From the outside there is no suggestion of a chamber even, and yet once you get inside it's rather like being in the tardis.



We only saw a fraction of the place and hope to go back later in the year.

Maybe it's a bridal shelter...
