Yorkshire

We have just come back from five days away up in Yorkshire in a gorgeous cottage in a village called Sinnington near Pickering.  We had a very busy five days and got back last Friday evening shattered and spent the weekend catching up with all the washing and ironing and trying to cope with the heat!  We didn't get the really hot weather that Norfolk had up in Yorkshire, it was lovely and dry and sunny but not boiling hot which was good.  We packed a lot into the week including visits to the city of York (shops for Kim), Harrogate (shops for Kim), Bempton Cliffs (puffins for me), Scarborough and Whitby and Robin Hood Bay, Yorkshire Lavendar and Castle Howard.  Lucy was excellent, we took her for a long walks around the village we were staying in and she came out with us during the day, a very tired dog by the end of the day!!!

Back to normal now with housework to do, more ironing and work this afternoon.  Trying to sort through the many photos I took last week and need to print some out to put into a mini book I'm making.  Got some sewing I want to get into.  I bought a Cath Kidston Sew Book in York which comes with all you need to make a small bag so want to get started on that.  We found two CK shops in Yorkshire full of lovely stuff but just too expensive, £18.00 per metre for the material.
