When we visited Wells Cathedral this past summer we eventually found ourselves in the Quire. At one end of the Quire stalls was a small pulpit with a flat wooden stand on the front edge which was obviously meant to support an open book. On this board was a cushion and on the cushion was – well see for yourselves.

This is Louis. He lives in the cathedral apparently in considerable comfort. Must be noisy when the choir’s singing and a chap is trying to get some sleep but then some people have no consideration.
