The plan for today was to visit the Birmingham Back to Backs but unfortunately they were fully booked. It was a long way to travel just to have lunch in Birmingham so plan B was hatched. The next choice was Wightwick Manor which isn’t too far away from Birmingham. However the journey there was rather arduous, every single traffic light was on red and one of the roads was blocked off and lined with policemen, which meant a detour.

I also saw a most bizarre site along the way. An elderly lady who was dragging her wheeled shopping trolley was walking in one lane of a dual carriage way, totally oblivious to all the traffic!!!

Luckily the visit was well worth it and I am sure I will be going back later in the year for one of the longer guided tours and to see the garden in bloom.
