Godiva Awakes

Godiva on Friday 27th July, trying her dress on
I have been checking up on Coventry's iconic 20ft tall Godiva figure, since she took up residence in University Square last week. It was fascinating to watch the rehearsals, and see the technicians checking out the animatronic features such as her blinking eyes and tilting head.


Those feet, once shod, will trudge through seven towns, all the way to London
Unfortunately, I could not get a ticket for the 'Godiva Awakes' event on Saturday night, but I could hear the throb of the music all the way from Ernesford Grange, and I watched the spectacular fireworks from my bedroom window. Today I am hoping to get a picture of Godiva as she proceeds out of Coventry.
