Sausthorpe is a small village with a B I G church, St. Andrews. Noting that I am not religious but if I was I would think that I would feel a little closer to my god by entering the chuch (which I never have by the way - but I will do one day as it is so very impressive and many say modelled on another famous Lincolnshire church [actually maybe only it's spire, he says as an afterthought] - St James' in Louth).
Whenever I pass Sausthorpe church which is quite often as the scenery nearby is outstanding, I always mean to take a photo. I finally did recently (on my mediocre camera on my Sony phone) and it is shown below:
The church and the village of Sausthorpe are, of course, in The Lincolnshire Wolds AONB (Britain's best kept secret of outstanding natural beauty).
I have a friend living just around the corner (sadly just about on the main road - a busy one carrying much east/west holiday coastal traffic), She is a great jazz pianist (keyboardist I guess one should say) and singer who looks rather like Jessie J (and is known to her friends as Jazzy J).
We used to hear her play a lot but we never get to know of any public gigs these days but I expect she still plays.
