Last Couple Of Days

Today we had a morning walk along the Thornton - Queensbury cycle track, turning round

at the Queensbury tunnel.

Elevenses was a Toasted Current Teacake in the excellent café along the track.

Yesterday I had a local walk before we drove over to Heckmondwike to take Abi (13 today) and her dad to The Brickworks Pub for a meal.

I was looking forward to their, usually excellent, curry/rice/nan meal , but they had run out of rice - as if!!!
