No, we paid four pounds each to climb the stairs in the steeple tower
to the viewing platform. :)

I like the pano better. The other is too cropped for me. OR I might crop 
the pano again, but leave more of the background in. If possible. The 
sense of height makes a big difference.

That still didn't quite work for me so I cropped it to the vertical

cropped version is still over 32 megapixels.

No, but the Gargoyle used to enforce the comma's use, until it, (the 
gargoyle), retired.  Unfortunately for the comma, the gargoyle's 
position was eliminated leaving the comma on it's own.
