WEDNESDAY, MARCH UM, 1965. My. friend told us to be sure to see Son et Lumiere at Dur- ham CathedrEd and suggested that we stay at Finchale Abbey Camp, that night. It is near the village of 'Pity Me' which was once 'Petit Mer' named by a group of French settlers who liv- ed beside the lake or pond that used to be there: Finchale rhymes with twinkle and Alnwick rhymes with' panic. Durham' must nave more traffic- problems than any other place of its size. A traffic policeman sits in a glass 'box' in the middle of a tiny square where 4 or 5 very narrow streets 'meet, at odd angles, and 'directs traffic with the aid of a small radar screen, a number .of push buttons and luniinous white covers on the lower part of his sleeves. At night there is a very strong light in his box and he makes,a real picture, groomed and polished and splendid. Son et Lumiere also glows at night. It is actually the story of' incidents in the • history of the' magnificent old Cathedral, told, by, the Narrator to her Can- adian 'godson. As the .,story un- folds — all on tape lightS change and move and brighten and darken or change colour to) emphasize the story or heighten the drama and suspense. Only the altar tapers were burning when the roof beams were creak- ing. Another time the only light was on the cross. Another time ,the beautiful rose window . was • floodlit from outside.
