Yorkshire. The Texas Of England?

So Richard, how long have you worked for the Yorshire Tourist Board :lol:
If you are coming down this way at all, give me a shout
Would be nice to meet you in person :D

I'd love to get back down again, as I stated above, there's a few places I'd really like to come to again.
Burgh Island in particular (near Plymouth)


I suppose you realise that your 'screen-name' is Yorkshire influenced
As Brahm Stoker was very much influenced by Whitby

(I know it's in conjunction with your invaluble NHS role)

Bigbury/ Challaborough/ Burgh Island :D
Many a holiday spent there in a caravan as a kid,
along with half the population of Plymouth :lol:
Still go there now (out of season)

Tractor across to the Island, crisps and lemonade in "The Pilchard"
that was always a treat
How times have changed :(

Have you got any photos of it (pre-restoration)??

There's a very good book all about the purchase & restoration
