Had our first night away (excluding the funerals) together from Bolehill since we arrived here! Our friends who usually stay with us for a few days over Christmas or New Year were celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary but didn’t know we were going to join them. As they don’t live far from York we combined this with a trip to see Chris’s mum. Originally we had planned to visit Chris’s parents then join our friends for a surprise meal organised by another couple and drive home later that night but we decided to stay over and spend some extra time with Chris’s mum. We also dropped the probate forms into Sheffield as we go through Sheffield on the way there. We came back Wednesday afternoon, the weather was horrible which impacted on the traffic. We stopped at Makro to break up the journey on the way back arriving home late evening. Oh and the Met Office have finally confirmed that we won’t be havving a BBQ summer after all. I’ll put my sundress away for another year then. Not good news for the cottage guests in our peak district self catering cottages either.
