Manchester Art Gallery
I would recommend a visit to the Art Gallery in Manchester. What made an impression on me was their choice of painting from the Pre-Raphaelite period from the mid 1800. The movement was a reaction against art using the Greek mythology and they wanted to show life as it was as well as using many biblical motives and themes from literature.

The art gallery is completely free as many other museums in England seem to be.

From one Heart to Another 
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to
get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost
a pretty penny? I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I only saw your comment and question now. I started with a free WordPress theme and it was nearly as nice. This theme is bought but not so expensive. I pay something for security and for the blog name .com instead of WordPress.com
There are so many nice free themes to blog about. I got some help from a private webmaster to set it up nicely.
