Yes, up late again – 7.45! 🙂 The weather forecast is a bit crappy for today, although peeking through the curtains revealed something rare – a blue-ish sky!!
With the weather a little unpredictable, we decided to seek the safety of somewhere under-cover, so we’re going to take the short drive to Colne – around 9 miles away. It’s got a massive Boundary Mills superstore, so that’ll be worth a look.
We decided to take the short route to Colne – this meant avoiding all the main roads and using the local road. it was about a fifth of the distance and about a hundred times more dangerous because of the numerous narrow bits and the stunning views (that distracted the driver) either side of the road revealing stunning views of the yorkshire/lancashire landscape.
It was worth it though, the store was fantastic – so large it was difficult to navigate around but it seemed to stock most things. It even had an M and S outlet in it too. We shopped ‘til we dropped (into the restaurant) and then shopped some more! However, by 1.45 were all ‘shopped-out’ and headed back to the Cottage. Just our luck to get stuck behind a coach on the which doubled the time it took to get back.
We were back to the cottage by 2.15, and that’s where we stayed for the rest of the day. It certainly wasn’t warm enough to go anywhere else, so we caught up with our reading complemented by a yummy selection of cheese and biscuits and (for a time), a roaring fire! – perfect!!!
Homemade Lasagne tonight for supper – yum!
We’re off to the famous Bradford Media Museum tomorrow.
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
