So...come on everyone......HOW DID IT GO????

We've all taken over as 'da management' Duncan...you go and relax somewhere and take it easy! ;0)

Robin Hood's Bay? Ahhh!...HOW could I forget that song? "Take me down to Robin Hood's Bay...take me down, roll me down....Take me down to Robin Hood's Bay and roll me down the hill..and when...."

Always makes me feel happy that song! Never been there, but I've got lots of piccies of it now. When we went to Otley I fell in love with Yorkshire and came home with all sorts of books about it...with PICCIES! ;0)....Also I've got some of those beautiful cards that The National Trust have in their shops...bought mine in York..Ohh....don't get me started on York..WHAT a beautiful city!Anyway...one of those cards is a wonderful photograph of Robin Hood's Bay AND it's taken by a photographer whose name is...wait for it.....Joe Cornish (!!!) 'tis a sign! ;0)

Look...I've just found his site AND it's got the very card that I'm talking about on there....main page on the right hand side:

So now, I walk past Joe's piccie on my wall in the kitchen and Duncan's song comes into my mind. Do you think Robin Hood's Bay is 'calling me' for some reason? Where's that Martin Carthy?...He'd be able to answer that one! ;0)

Will sit tight now and wait to hear from everyone.
