Tuesday 2 August - Halifax

Where was Bertie? He spent a night on Ma-in-Law's drive, with us inside. 

Weather: Largely overcast, but warm.

Due to a desire to use t'internet, and not fritter away my data allowance, I proposed morning coffee in Wetherspoons before we left Skipton and, once there, Mick decided a full cooked breakfast would be a good idea too. So, there we sat, Mick eating and me looking incredibly rude by constantly scrolling through my phone (in my defence, I was searching through thousands of official Lakeland photos for Mick's).

Photos found, coffees and breakfast consumed, and back to Bertie we went for Covid tests before leaving on the dot of our ticket expiring to make the short hop down to Halifax. 

It was Mick's big brother's annual pilgrimage to see his mum, and we always try to pop by whilst he's there as it's the only time we see him. 

There's thus nowt to report bar much chatting and catching up. It was late indeed by the time bedtime was declared and, with Mick's brother and sister-in-law using the bedroom that is usually ours, we retreated to Bertie out on the driveway. It's a much easier way of visiting - no need to pack stuff to take into the house, and a nice comfy bed with en-suite bathroom.

    1. No projects, but its not long now until we'll be crossing the Channel for a longer trip. Not entirely sure where we're going yet (I had a plan but it has been scuppered before it started), but that is but a minor detail.
