No.

 

The North is grim. You are much better off heading south.

The North IS grim . . . (it's oft described as "e-grim" - which was adopted by the rest of the country as 'grime'!

actually in the last one, which is Rodley there is a pub immediately behind me and in the double arch bridge shot there is one just around the corner.

If I knew how, I'd give Dottyshirl a greenie for starting such an entertaining thread.

 

And did it land North or South up? An enquiring mind would like to know.

Bottom right of her post there is a green square with a white 'up' arrow on it.

 

Click on that, job done.

Oh, yes, truly is it written (Potteries accent) "Yow lurns summat noo ivvery day."

[Dottyshirl]

Seeing I am the skipper of our craft I do not relish the thought of driving all day then cooking an evening meal so ahead of being afloat (hopefully) tomorrow, today I spent my spare time making pea and ham soup, braised steak with onions, a deluxe quiche, chicken tikka curry and a chilli con carne, all ready to reheat after a long day at the tiller... To be eaten on separate nights may I say lol

Let me know before you venture onto the Macc. Otherwise I probably won't see you through the fog, constant rain and exhaust smoke from hot bulb engines running on old chip fat and coal dust.
