An old railway poster. There's me and Mrs Pudding sitting on the clifftop. And that's where we are bound an hour from now via York and Thirsk - but not by train. We shall be travelling in "Clint" - our luxury Hyundai vehicle. Perhaps I will be able to bring you a blogpost or two from Saltburn-by-the-Sea before coming home on Saturday.

You look both very elegant, and I think it is wise of you using a walking cane just in case your knee causes you trouble again.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip!
The walking cane is also useful for whacking dogs and small children who get in my way.
DeleteEnjoy.
ReplyDeleteYes ma'am!
DeleteHave fun. Don't forget your sunscreen !
ReplyDeleteThis ain't Oz Helen! We like to get burnt here.
DeleteI have been binge watching Downton Abbey with my daughter. York and Thirsk get regular mentions in the show so I'm imagining you and Mrs Pudding all glammed up in 1920's fashions and heading to the fair (or is it fayre?)
ReplyDeleteBus fare?...No sign of Downton dwellers here in Saltburn-by-the Sea but I saw a couple of surfers...even though the sea was hardly rippling.
DeleteEnjoy your trip and travel safely.
ReplyDeleteI shall headmaster.
DeleteI hope it turns out to be as wonderful as that poster!
ReplyDeleteIt is now 8.30 in the evening and we have been in Saltburn for five hours. So far lovely and warm weather too.
DeleteNice poster indeed. Make the most of your trip, soak up in the sun, and enjoy the scenery too. Greetings and best wishes!
ReplyDeleteThank you Mr B. It is a shame you weren't in "The Victoria" this evening. I would have liked to have a pint or two eith you before challenging you to an arm-wrestling contest.
DeleteI love those old posters. You have picked some good weather to go to the seaside! Hope you have a lovely time.
ReplyDeleteWe are here now. This afternoon we walked on the beach in shirt sleeves then walked along the old Victorian pier. Not a goosebump in sight.
DeleteEnjoy!
ReplyDeleteI shall obey Mistress.
DeleteGreat poster. A pity you couldn't travel by train but I'm sure Clint will get you there safe and sound.
ReplyDeleteWe are here now in Saltburn-sur-mer. Clint did good.
DeleteWell the weather looks set fair for a day or two YP so enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI checked with God first and he said he's keep it fine for us.
DeleteI hope Clint treats you well during your trip to and from. Take care.
ReplyDeleteClint loves to be free. Free upon the open road. Free to follow his bonnet to freedom. All Clints are the same.
DeleteYou are wrong there, Mr. Pudding.
DeleteMy Clint is very happy where he is. He has a glint in his eyes and always has a smile for me every time I open my fridge door.
And you must also remember, my dear, golden Clint is older than your silver Clint!
