TROMBONE AND CANON
Look at this most perfect picture of The Grange.
It was taken by Andy Waddicor who was in the pit playing his trombone and would periodically sneak out to take pictures using his very expensive Canon lenses. If you need a photographer... he is your man.

SUN IN MARRAKECH
Riad Wasfi was part of the Pasha's palace in the medina, and is one minute from the souks, the Djemaa el-Fna and the Katoubia mosque. You couldn't be more central. There is a large central courtyard, a roof terrace with views of the Atlas Mountains, an elegant salon, two double bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and more... including a maid who is an amazing cook. Here is a little film.
