Travel beckons this w/e. We are pointing the Scrobmobile (freshly oiled and watered) North for a few days in Teesdale.
I have a long list of lead mines, water engines and engineering project visits lined up. Mrs S has already vetoed all of these so we are planning endless walks (to counteract 'Intensive Hostelry Investigation') with JRT to ensure that we eventually return with a net weight loss...
Mrs S has a birthday while we are away, and I’m not entirely sure whether B and Q will be able to deliver the 14inch angle grinder and accessories on the day. Perhaps the other suitcase full of bits and pieces will make her day!
We’re going to leave the greenhouse door open at ‘The Turrets’, so I hope that next door's bloody cat doesn’t come in and piss on the cucumbers...

Bon Voyage. Hope it stays fine for you.
What Grumps said!
I may come and keep an eye on your greenhouse, but I don't promise to stay away from the cucumbers!
Thanks Grumpers - we're hoping for fine weather - otherwise the ale sales will quadruple in a matter of minutes...
Bluesers - you're welcome, they're only in flower as yet - but by all means visit, we need someone to augment the burglar alarm...
If the light comes on, just be happy... not many people round here deserve to be in lights...
"A suitcase full of bits and pieces" for Mrs Scrobs' birthday.....
Kinky, or what?
The other guests in the Blastedheath View B&B had better pack ear plugs.
Have a super time, Scrobs, Teesdale looks well worth the visit.
have a fine trip and happy birthday to mrs scrobs!
Bon Voyage!
I went through Teesdale a few weeks ago, en route from the Lakes to watch some motor racing at Croft.
It looks like a nice part of the world and I imagine the hostelries are worth reviewing!
Have a great time. Sounds like you have a good itinerary sorted out.
Cat piss cucumbers - very distinctive flavour, I should imagine.
Hi Scrobbers - just thought I would let you know that I am back on the blogesphere.
Have a good time!
