Enjoying retirement
In The Red Rose County
We spotted this farm shop on our way home from Skipton, so on a Saturday went to do our shopping. It's an amazing place with huge quantities of everything you can think of (where else can you buy jars of sprout powder I wonder?). F. was like a kid in a sweet shop, loading our basket with everything (me too). The cafe/restaurant is closed but we will return....... On a mixed Sunday for weather we decided to keep it local, so walked outside our front door to climb the hill opposite us which is what we see all the time from our bedroom and living room. After a short climb......... .......we looked back to where we lived in Trawden....... ......and we did a loop, ending up at the pub in Trawden (closed of course). The skies were dramatic, but luckily we avoided the rain. ......and saw in the old farms we passed signs of an older way of life... Some of the squeeze stiles were very narrow........ The fields and paths were very muddy indeed and we had no hesitation at all in going back by the B road.....
