My funniest experience of the "NT effect" was many years ago when we lived in Warwick. One of our favourite pubs in town was managed by a very personable couple who were approaching retirement age. Spent many an hour in their company, often playing bar billiards. Anyway, they left the pub and we next met them working as volunteers at Charlecote Park. You guessed it..........they cut us dead!

When I last visited Avebury I wanted to re-visit the museum. I reached the ticket point and flashed my CADW card which gives free entry via the E.H. tie-in.
'Oh' said the lady in quite a dismissive tone 'you do realise you are ONLY allowed in the museum and NOT the manor house with THIS'. I thanked her and said I did know and that I only wanted to visit the museum!
