      I believe them, yes indeed and I believe those nice BBC men who come round and knock at your door to ask if you have any jars of cucumbers in dill in your attic, to which I always reply...
      I once knew an Indian lady,
      She stood but ten foot high,
      The colour of her hair was sky blue-pink,
      and she only had one eye.
      I asked her if she'd marry me,
      and be my lawful wife,
      but the only thing that she could say...
      Was arrowah tit bum skray.
      The nice BBC men then ask...Have you been watching Dolly Parton and His Orchestra this week at all sir? to which I always reply...
      There was a young girl from Vancouver,
      who shaved her fat bum with a Hoover
      then after ten weeks,
      of hoovering her cheeks.
      Her bum just got smoother and smoother.
      Talking of Vancouver, Ma cuisine préférée est la poitrine de poulet aux champignons sautés, sauce à la crème et pommes de terre dauphinoises...After which we all sit down & watch a documentary about the shortage of Thick Cut Marmalade in Grimsby.

      When have the BBC ever told the truth? I think it might have been last Tuesday when the BBC announced...Although we knew Hew Edwards was actually Alvin Stardust's Great Grandmother, but as far as we know, he was not bequeathed Jimmy Saville's tracksuit in his will.
      I also think Barry Vinegar should get at least 20 million quid a year...I mean, how is the poor man expected to survive on just over a paltry one million? AND he writes such lovely poetry, such as...
      There was a young lady from Woking
      who couldn't stop Farting and Boaking,
      Not being her fault
      She tried Epsom Salt
      Which thankfully stopped her from choking.

    We were there last month, it was quiet. It rained. But the place is undeniably beautiful. There was an authentic looking Spanish galleon moored in the harbour.
    We ate expensive but lovely fish & chips and drank Abbey Pale at Whitby Brewery.
    It's a jitty down here in Derbyshire
    There's another great little craft beer pub by the railway station.
    As motorbikers, we were happy the motorcycle ban in Whitby Railway station car park has been overturned. We will definitely be back to Whitby. It's a lovely place.

    I was born and bred in Whitby and it's a snicket. We also have ghauts which are narrow alleys running down to the Esk which were often used for smuggling. Also the concrete structure is the Woodsmith halite mine's lift gear. When finished the gear will be sunk into a tunnel to stop it disturbing the view. The columned building you point out is Whitby Museum (my mum is a curator there) and the domed building is a block of flats built by my cousin which isn't appreciated much in the town. I think lots of folk call it Xanadu or the pleasure dome;]

      No, it was Thurs 1st Aug to Sat 3rd. Had great weather too 👍 By the way, if you're up that way again, there's now a great Community-run Aire in the very centre of Goathland. Really great value: pay and book online 🙂

    My challenge (should I decide to accept it) is to get to the top of the steps to the Abbey ( after knee surgery) however that’s more yer slope which I’ve now convinced myself I can do!
    It’s a cut not a ginnel.
