On Saturday I was filming in Ely Cathedral.
"You'll be on the camera up in the niche by the clock. It's quite high up. Is that ok?"
Bridget looks down the nave. Can't see a clock. Looks up. And up. And up. Argh!

Really non-scary though, a yard-wide walkway set a foot deep into the stone, with close-ish pillars behind and that wall in front where the clock is. The wall is a yard thick and the solidity is reassuring, I didn't turn green at all.

"Up the BBCs," they call it. Passage originally built so they could access the clock. The building is riddled with hidden staircases and walkways.

Thank goodness I don't get the collywobbles from photos! That is some tremendous view.

Same here. Although my imagination is filling in for me, so I'll not be looking at those photos for long ...

Yes, me too. Although my fear of heights is transient (one day I'll get it, the next day not), but I'd hate to have anyone depending on me not to freak out.

Cool. We haven't yet dared take E up the Octagon.

Ely Cathedral is one of my favorite places in the world.

Tom shuddered and sent you his sympathy.
