I see that there is a Tall Ships Festival at Hartlepool 7 to 10 August, they are expecting 100 tall ships to sail into Harlepool, and numerous special events are to take place during the whole period.  What a photo opportunity!  Anyone going?

I WISH I could be there!

They have a Hot Air Balloon Festival in Bedford, but for the life of me I cannot remember when it is.

Haworth is famous the world over for its connections with the Bronte sisters, the famous novelists. They lived at Haworth Parsonage which is now a museum cared for and owned by the Bronte Society. This is where the bronte sisters once lived and wrote some of their most famous novels including Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre and Agnes Grey. The village also hosts once a year a fantastic 1940's weekend.
