Saturday in Coventry

Another rail strike day so had to get up super early and get a coach up to Coventry. At least it was a lovely sunny day. I was going to have lunch, and then onto the football, with my friend Stephen, a now retired partner at my firm. Had a little time to spare so I wandered around some remnants of medieval Coventry, still there in the City Centre if you know where to look.



Spon Street




We had agreed to meet at the Telegraph Hotel, once the home of the Coventry Evening Telegraph newspaper, now a hotel in what is now fashionable mid century style (1950s post war as was)


Then onto lunch by the canal, and walking distance of the football ground. 









And then to the Coventry Building Society Arena. All lovely apart from the result; Coventry 0 Burnley 1. Nothing in it, but irritatingly one blip amidst an excellent run of results for the Sky Blues.
