Not just the eels; I was recently reading a novel set in 19th C Ely (The Dean's Watch by Elizabeth Goudge), and was looking for photographs of the city on line. Your blog has given me what none of those photos did - as you said, that sense of the cathedral rising up above the surrounding countryside, as Goudge described it in the novel. She lived in Ely as a child, so she knew it well. I must go there one day.<br />I have never eaten eel since I read the eel-fishing episode in Gunther Grass's 'The Tin Drum.'Leslie Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15105465949970430998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-10331762603732349622011-12-30T19:12:09.880+00:002011-12-30T19:12:09.880+00:00Posts like this one are the reason why I follow th...Posts like this one are the reason why I follow this blog. Some months ago a UK colleague sent me pictures of Ely and I have been impressed. <br />I hope that I will get the opportunity to visit Ely once in my life.<br /><br />I love to read historicals beside science fiction and fantasy.<br /><br />Fortunately I belong to the people who do not drink too much alcohol. So my wife do not need me to cure with an eel.ediFanoBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129248787624088717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-61050435857867192222011-12-29T11:18:53.293+00:002011-12-29T11:18:53.293+00:00Interested to hear of the novel about the beguinag...Interested to hear of the novel about the beguinages - I've visited a couple in Belgium and thought they looked delightful places to live!Sue Purkisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09084528571944803477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-47780473367290759842011-12-29T10:44:22.593+00:002011-12-29T10:44:22.593+00:00Wonderful to see you here, Karen - I loved The Gal...Wonderful to see you here, Karen - I loved The Gallows Curse,and it was great to get this glimpse of what lay behind it.<br /><br />There <i>is</i> a definite timewarp feel about parts of Ely, I think - did you see the reenactment a couple of years ago when they had 1st century corracles on the Ouse?<br /><br />But eels too. There's something of the primaeval slime about them, older than history, older than time. And of course disgustingly sinister.

I have the Gallows Curse on my shelf waiting to be read. I have recently moved to Cambridge and have now visited Ely cathedral and written about the visit but I never got up on the roof... It sounds marvellous but whether I'd have the guts is another matter. Super post. I do not like the sound of those eels AT ALL!!adelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15826710558292792068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-44108363824056497992011-12-29T09:42:17.415+00:002011-12-29T09:42:17.415+00:00Good to read this as I pack my car to head to Ely....Good to read this as I pack my car to head to Ely. <br /><br />Did you need special permission to visit the roof of the cathedral?Thomas Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12987047131104943571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-89216218012797119242011-12-29T08:07:48.490+00:002011-12-29T08:07:48.490+00:00What a great feast of vertiginous, queasy, squirmy...What a great feast of vertiginous, queasy, squirmy delights!
