    On two Wheels.

    …. Don’t forget pegging a bit of card or a lolly stick so it struck the spokes when the wheel went round to make the noise of a motorbike :)

    Holmfirth today August ‘24

    No we were just visiting. I’ve got a few days off and we’re off into Derbyshire ( Lathkill Dale or Beresford Dale maybe) tomorrow for a couple of nights. We’ve just bought a new bigger teepee so thought we might try that instead of the camper as we’ve got a local VW gathering next weekend so...

    Holmfirth today August ‘24

    While we sat on the bench with our brew and a sticky bun Gill reminded me about the live camera on Beatties so I had quick look and ….EH Up…there we were. Not very clear but that’s probably a good thing :)

    Holmfirth today August ‘24

    It had been a while since we visited Holmfirth so off we went today. Managed to dodge any traffic en route so only took 50 minutes. We had a great wander around….and a brew at Sid’s.

    On two Wheels.

    I remember my little 3 wheeler with a tin box on the back that I used to ride down the footpaths to the bakers when I was about 4. I never had a new bike ever. I always got a refurbished one of my Grandad, usually a Raleigh with racing handles. Then I progressed to making my own Frankenstein...

    I usually like a nice cheese and onion or spicey tomato or Kettle ready salted.Last week a workmate gave me a bag of these… wow - what a flavour. Definitely worth finding if you like it hot.

    The agony of choice

    I’ll have to add another into the mix. Large meringue, crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle..probably the equivalent of eating a 2lb bag of sugar but it’s not every day! From Pronto Deli in Leek Staffs.

    Every* British TV Sitcom: Trivia Question 2

    BBC2 are having a sitcom season with a show on every night at 10 pm. I doubt there’ll be any forgotten classics though. Talking Pictures have just shown the two series of Together that were made in the ‘80’s. The second ( last ) series was broadcast live and although it wasn’t a sit com it...

    Must be summer hols....

    We have those on our local bypass to deter boy racers and super car racers. In a trial for the first 16 months it recorded 1,900 activation’s that would have resulted in £130,00 worth of fines. I think it’s going live this year.
