The weekend winds down as I write. We were joined by Steve and Russell on Friday and have enjoyed showing them the sites and sounds of Yorkshire until they left after Sunday Lunch today. Saturday consisted of a late start (following a little too much vino the night before) with us heading into York and Leeds for a spot of shopping. Harvey Nichols was on particularly good form with lots of eye candy and new clothing alike. A good few quid later, we stopped for Lunch at their Espresso Cafe Bar in the Victoria Quarter.
Saturday evening had us join the Ghost Hunt of York. We arrived by taxi to join a crowd of tourists all eagerly waiting for the tour to start in the Shambles at 7.30. Dressed as I was (see left), quite a few of them thought I was the act! A little girl asking if I was going to be scary? Me!
The hunt itself was really good fun and the near 100 people who followed the story and humour around the back alleys of York all seemed to have a good time. We rounded the evening off with a late dinner at a favourite local Italian restaurant before grabbing a taxi back home. Sunday has been all together more sedentary affair with me cooking a traditional Sunday Lunch with Yorkshire Puddings. All in all, a very nice relaxing and fun weekend.
