We had a visit to Haworth this afternoon to look at the few shops there before enjoying a fish butty, curtesy of the Golden Hind chippy, Oxenhope.
A cracking fish it was as well.
Later we had a look at Ponden and Leeshaw reservoirs.
On the way home Sue dropped me at Crag Lane, Denholme and I enjoyed a hot hike home via Ogden.
