Excellent idea Wendy, you’ve put the money to good use.Wendyf wrote: ↑29 Mar 2025, 08:58 I nipped into Skipton yesterday afternoon too Gloria to visit the art gallery on Victoria Street. They have been holding a Peter Brook event and I have a small collection of his prints. There is very little that I want or need these days but I felt I should treat myself to something special with the money from selling mum's jewellery......and I did! I've bought this one off print, which I'm going to collect on Monday.

Looks good Kev, hope you enjoy the War of the Worlds!
I've been up to the top of Weets with Sally where it was glorious but wild.

Yes it was windy, and a cold wind as well!

Yesterday afternoon was lovely in Foulridge, had a walk to The Old Stone Trough for a refreshing beer. On the way back there was sunshine and the moon.

Re: Where Have You Just Been?
Stratford on Avon since Monday. Went down to see our Ruby. Her mum found us a nice hotel in town as she works in the hotel sector. We got an upgrade on arriving as well which was nice.
We got home last night just after 9.30. We had to vacate our hotel by 11 am but they had a bag store so we could leave or rucksacks at the hotel reception for the day, our train from Stratford wasn't until 4pm. We spent the day doing 12,500 steps shopping with Ruby who was looking for something to wear to her sister Neave's 21st birthday party last night. I think we walked every street in Stratford on the quest.
There is no direct route up to Leeds and beyond from Stratford so you have to change at Birmingham. The train terminates at Birmingham Moor Street and you have to get up to New Street station which is about a 10 minute walk for the cross country trains. The ones that go through Leeds either start at Plymouth or Exeter and terminate at Glasgow or Edinburgh. We booked open tickets so could get whichever was most convenient. We had over an hour to spare at Birmingham as we had booked seats on the Edinburgh train which was at 18.05, just enough time to get a bite to eat. Our seats weren't together but one behind the other but the bloke who would have been sat with me was also going to Leeds so he swapped his seat for Sally's so we could sit together. Uneventful journey via Derby, Sheffield, Wakefield and we arrived in Leeds with 20 minutes to spare for the 20.26 Skipton train. It was waiting on the platform by the time we got there. Our Jack picked us up at 21.15
A nice couple of days with our Ruby. Our cat Minnie was pleased to see us, not abandoned but fed twice daily by Sally's Sister Julia. I slept like a proper sleepy person last night after trudging the West Midlands all day.
