The Swan. Lavenham. UK

   I thought that I'd follow a 90 second house with one from the 15th Century.
   We drew directly with ink onto canvas.
   I was quite pleased with it then but now I think it's time to try again.
   I was fortunate in being able to live in the top overhang of such a building in Bildeston,
   it was the most beautiful home I've lived in in England. Because the floors sloped,
   if you sat on the closed lid of the toilet you gently slid off! The other floors had been
   levelled there having been a difference of say seven inches at one side to the other
   and then they would dip in the opposite direction. It was surprising how soon you
   accommodated the difference in floor pitch.
