I've seen Fire and I've seen Rain
... rain. I suppose the weather here has been on the news in Australia as large parts of the UK have been flooded. We were lucky as it was never that bad. A few roads closed due to flood but the caravan site just got soggy.
Also forgot to mention in the last entry that on Saturday when we left the cottage I had to spray the car windows with de-icing fluid. Sings of things to come. Must get the car anti-freeze ...

Finally to Ripon, where Jeans' grandmother was born. A lovely small town with a huge Cathedral. The town was full of bikers all dressed up as Santa or other characters. Must have been a charity run.
Went to a pub for lunch, which is a tale in itself. ...
