Diana, have I missed something here, catch the Peter bug? As for my reference to the tyre, I was thinking that you should perhaps let the cat out perhaps, and with any luck he might get run over and become the preverbial 'flat'. Sort of flat cat on the mat, or road! Alright, you know I don't mean it!

Ok, I thought you spelled it wrong but I looked it up in the dictionary and it said that "Tyre" is the British spelling for Tire. Embarassed    I'll give you that one Ron.  Albeit, begrudgingly. LOL!!!

Yes Diana, we spell it correctly, tyre! We also drive on the left, seat belts from the left (for the passenger anyway), preserve our buildings etc....unlike you guys, you have obviously got it all wrong, will you never learn? Serve's you right really, thats what you get for kicking us Brits out of America some 350 years ago! Thinks.....that'll wind her up, wait for the flak again!! Oh and by the way, I have chalked the last one up (tyre that is). He, he.

Sorry we missed you BrianAs you will have seen there is still a bit of work to be done – but we’re getting there. Steph (my gorgeous wife) me and the kids are still living in Wales trying to sell the family home and sorting out the business whilst Midge Hall is being renovated. We look to be on schedule to be up there for the beginning of July and have set ourselves a goal to have the tea garden open by the end of July. Ready for all you POE to visit!

I have just returned from holidaying in North Yorkshire and had the pleasure of visiting the now reopened Tea Garden.

Jack & Steph were most welcoming when we visited, even supplying free dog biscuits for our Labrador!

It's a beautiful spot and well worth a visit, only a quick hop from Boggle Hole or Robin Hood's Bay.

As Arnie once said: "I'll be back!"

Just returned from a walking holiday in North Yorkshire
Visited Falling Foss Waterfall and The Hermitage but found the Forrest walks a bit boring
Well worth visiting just to see the the waterfall
Called in at Midge Hall Tea Garden which is now open, for a lovely Cream Tea and pot of tea for 2, which was most welcolme, this tea garden is a most wonderful sight in the forrest and well worth a visit if you are in the area

Notice fellow POE members that we now have a Peter W. Having said that Peter E is really ugly, so there's not much chance of a mix-up is there?
