A diary of minor adventures

This is a jog through things we have done while in the UK. It is for friends and family who may give a damn about what we get up to.

Manlangang 2010 - Yorkshire

Hi Matt Hi Ret, Here are the shots we took of you both and a couple of shots you might not have taken at the time. If there are others from any day you missed, like scenery shots you might not have caught let me know and I'll post them up here for you. These first two were at the salmon ladder at Wetherby weir.

These lasses were at the Knaresborough castle Maundy faire on Saturday morning after our first magnificent poached egg breakfast.

Ballancing on the edge of Sutton Bank above Thirsk (James Herriot museum)

Me Ret Gail Matt Carolyn David all at Fennel french restaurant, upstairs having cocktails before entrees, mains and puddings. I recall Ret had a dessert this night.. although she never does, really.
High morning tea, or second breakfast, at Betty's Harrogate, note waitress in traditional uniform.. nicely caught don't you think?
Steam train going into Skipton where we saw narrowbats and had a drink in the canal-side pub
On the Wharfe river outside the Bolton Abbey priory.
Didn't now if you got a shot of the sun light thru the stained glass in the priory that day, here was Gail's best shot.
The final meal, buffet breakfast at Clocktower restaurant Rudding Park.
And the never to be forgotten Roomster, Skoda's answer to a T.A.R.D.I.S.
It was wonderful having you both to stay, Gail and I had such a great time showing you our neighbourhood. We are both looking forward to next year's Manlangang adventure, what-ever and where-ever that turns out to be. Hope you have just as good a time in Ireland and the weather there is as kind to you as it was here..
