Just back from…

A few days in’t Yorkshire Dales and a few days in and around Fishguard in Pembrokeshire.

Used the car for both trips and stayed in independent hostels too.

First part was on familiar ground as Swaledale was part of my old stamping ground in my days as an outdoor instructor whilst Fishguard and the surrounding area was new territory.

Did the sun shine? Yes!

Did it rain? Only overnight and whilst in the car on the way back from Wales.

Was the food good?

Yes, apart from the last night’s bar meal – how is it possible for a pub to screw up a plate of bangers and mash?

It was probably the worst bar meal I’ve ever had and certainly the worst (or should that be wurst) sausage and mash I’ve ever had.

There’s more to come once the bag has been unpacked and some washing has been done – it’s the photo downloads that take up the time now as there’s a new Apple in place and the photo program has been ‘upgraded’.

Oh, and there’s a software upgrade to sort out too.

Still beats using Windows…
