Pattern
Beware larks, we’re up, about and after you. Decide Breakfast is a dish best served elsewhere so we head to the train station, eat one bacon barm and one sausage barm (you can guess who had which!) at the caff at the station. Then onto the 07:48 to York.Train journey is uneventful with the exception of pheasant and bunny spotting. Arrive at York, utilise their water closets and head to the Railway Museum. Rodents we’re an hour early and its breezy and chilly again. Get some grief about that! Yep, truly I am in control of the weather! Eventually we get in and what a fab time we had. We find Steven a suitable cushion which we find amusing anyway! After a couple of hours hooning around with the camera we head to the road train.
Dropped at the Minster. Executive decision is taken to view the Minster then seek food on the basis that everyone will be eating now. The Minster is suitably beautiful and interesting. C gets carried away with the archaeology, I still struggle with that one! Still it’s a historically interesting venue. We end up with a new duck and church mouse from the shop!
Lunch provides a few issues, restaurants are full but we eventually find a Greene King pub to eat in. Both of us have the steak pie including a crust manufactured of reinforced concrete, I even try applying gravy to soften it.
Follow lunch with a gentle stroll to the station. C is suffering but she’s walked a relatively long distance today. We have a rest near the station, then into the Tap for a pint as we wait for the train. I Should Be So Wookie for me, delicous!
Uneventful train journey home and gentle stroll across the bridge back to the hotel.
Day at leisure… aka Scarborough day. Usual morning routine, wake early, grumble about breakfast time and then ablute. Brew, breakfast and we plan the day ahead. At least the day is sunny! 
Wake in the dungeon…. but the bed is comfy. As per usual we wake early and then have the hang around until 9.00 when we are due to have breakfast. It’s a bit of a pain in the backside that suits neither C or me. Ablute and make a brew. Read.
Wake, ablute and brekky, leave the houseo for trip to Scarborough. At the bus stop by 8.30. Grayway feeder arrives 15 minutes early which suits us. Off to Burtonwood services, changeover is smooth and plenty of time for a coffee.
Happy Easter! A day of tech support with Cal setting up Sharon’s new PC, getting camera shit together to go away. Setting things to charge.
An early start and it’s into Wigan in search of today’s photo. Return to the big giant head!
Aaargh! Anxiety! So looking forward to next week.
Been a bit of a bizarre day tbh. Up and out early, off to Wigan to capture some images. Still playing catch up with this place. New Long Ryder’s album on the way in. Vaguely thought a coffee might be welcome but cancelled out on the idea, got into work to no chair, Liam next to me had used it, grabbed it back, no headphones, he’d had those too I later dicovered. Have been allocated a locker which is useful because I’ll stash my stuff when we go away to keep thieving mitts off!
