It makes a change to be able to walk on there, often when we go the place is flooded. I took some photos which will no doubt be appearing at some stage If you go in the car James, use the Park & Ride, it's much cheaper than trying to find a parking space in the city. Depending on your age of course the bus could be free |

I know you can travel between the Yorkshire Ridings and Lancashire (GM) with the ones issued here but I thought I'd heard of people going countrywide on holiday with them, after 9.30am that is |

We have a thunderstorm. YAY! One fire already sparked today, there will be more, as we don't get much rain with our storms. Hubby is back on night shift tonight. This will be the first time in many, many years I have spent the night alone in our house. I'm sure I will hear every little noise and imagine someone or somthing is after me.
