Ready for the malted barley.   The Cooper.

Yorkshire Air Museum–Getting There

04/07/2013 Leave a comment

From a soggy Wales

IMG_7831   IMG_7832
Heavy drizzle and Waze in night mode.   Full English in a dry England.  Woodall services
IMG_7833   IMG_7835
Free WiFi and Starbucks.   Old style cross the motorway to get your food.
IMG_7836   IMG_5842
Early enough to still be quiet on the roads.   Full English for £1.99 with a 4sq special.  Toast and coffee extra.
IMG_7840   IMG_0272
Arrival – early by 90 minutes.   Angry but not raining clouds.
IMG_0273   IMG_0277
Lindy’s fine lines.   Ready to go in.

To a rather warm Elvington
