The Stowe is not enough..



Went for a day trip out to Stowe today which is a big school set in rather immaculate grounds. Scattered all over the grounds are little monuments and buildings that have some significance to someone.

Apparently quite a few famous people have gone there(Richard Branson being one) and Michael Jackson's son is enrolled to go there. But at A$60,000 a year I think I'll only be able to afford to send a couple of my kids there.

They also filmed part of 'The World is Not Enough'(a Bond, James Bond movie for those who don't know) at the Gothic Tower(see below). I also just found out that through the National Landmark Trust you can rent this place to stay in!
