    Harlow Carr Gardens is lovely.....it has a Betty's in there too !

    Out of lurk mode
    Yes harlow carr is great on a nice day and there is plenty for kids to do and loads of space for them to run around. If you go to Bettys there and don't want a hot dinner just teas and sarnies and cakes go in the left hand queue for the coffee shop, you still get the betty experience without the hour queue.

    Done loads of ironing today, and thought the sofa cushions looked a bit grubby so decided to take them off for a wash.

    We bought the sofa in DFS a couple of years ago and have mostly put throws on it of an evening when we're chilling, but not always. There are 4 large cushions on the base with zipped removable covers. I checked the label and it said do not wash, professional dry clean only. I did my usual and ignored the label and shoved them in the washer on a hand wash cycle in cold water.

    Me to DH - 'If they shrink, on my head be it'.
    DH to me - 'Don't worry, if they don't fit it's bound to me my fault, I usually get the blame :o'

    I put them in the tumble dryer for 5 mins to fluff the pile up a bit and stuck them on the line to dry.

    They've come up like new and fit the cushions perfectly :T

    DH to me 'Thank goodness for that' :rotfl:

    Has anyone got any suggestions as where to go what to do for an unplanned trip to Harrogate ...
    Betty's is on the list...

    Any other suggestions great fully received (I will have the monkeys with me;)
    )

    Thankyou

    Bettys is very nice, but rather cramped and a bit expensive, esp with 2 monkeys, so go in, buy a couple of buns, help yourself to the free samples (elite style), then have an impromptu picnic in Harlow Carr gardens!!
