One of the TAs who worked alongside Mum in the Hearing Impaired Unit at school lived in the gatehouse at the Bishops’ palace and trained the swans to ring the bell; she used to be in the photo on the postcard feeding them. Mum went to visit her once when she was unwell leaving my sister and I outside in the grounds. The Bishop came over to ask whether we were allowed to be there so I got to meet the future AB of C (as he tried to throw us out).
Fist of Fun is being repeated on Radio 4 Extra at the moment. Great to hear it again.

Was Stew hanging from something in that photo or was he doing a Musk-style love-salute?
Love Wells! Possibly my favourite cathedral in England, certainly the most original, particularly the unique scissor arch.
