no worries as the link made me look it up and see that the years pass is good value...I'd not get any use out of it this year but would get plenty next year so will look out for another offer or buy one then

The art pass will get you into Helmshore and Queens Mill if you are over that way - wonderful fabric shop for all things bedding / towels just opposite Helmshore (with a rather nice cafe). One episode of Sharpe was filmed there ... works carpark was full of horses and cavalry officers and Sean Bean graced the scene as well!!!

Been to Helmshore before and thoroughly enjoyed it- it is my Purple Ronnie moment:D Have never been to Queens mill though- thanks.

Sharpe:happyhear:happyhear;)

Used it today at Bowes museum- fab day out. The Egyptian exhibition was very disappointing though, but everything else was great- a lot to take in on one visit, so we will go again. Planning lots to use with the pass and of course the National Trust one as well.

I did see the offer before SW... really good value.

Glad you had a nice day out and looks like you will get plenty of use out of it

Well today, a la Peter Kay's mum, i am getting the house ready for when i go away. I love to come back to a house that just requires me doing nothing but putting the kettle on when i am arrive home. Nice welcoming feeling, which requires a bit of work before i go, but is worth the effort.:D Call me mental, but that's the way it is...and i bet a lot of you are like that as well...:p

Lists more or less sorted and packing is nearly done. I am utilizing the drier as DD2 came up with a pile of washing at the last minuter as per usual:o Which meant i got behind with general washing:mad: Just about finished now and should be able to get Kitchen sorted by dinner time at the latest.

Bills have been paid so i don't come back to nasty surprises..i hope.:eek:

So, Au Revoir for now folks i am wending my merry way down the M6, M5 Car park:D

Behave whilst i am away:p Bob x
