Second Visit To Chatsworth House

I had a lot more success photographing the interior of Chatsworth House today; the first two photographs were actually taken in the public toilets though, but don't look out of place.

I was the first person to enter many of the rooms and so took the opportunity to ask the members of staff some questions. I received very detailed and informative explanations which covered such wide-ranging subjects as tulipmania and the problems caused by long frilly sleeves when eating with a fork.

Conditions outside in the gardens were poor for photography, it stayed fine, but at times was quite dark....the sun did briefly pop out though.
