Ohhh , I'd usually plump for Rum but I think I may be more sophisticated and go for Brandy , thank you . My OH will take the same tipple I believe .

Perhaps at this point I ought to go and look at the link you put up Linda , so I know where I am :-S

We can sit at the back of the bus - singing "Are we nearly there yet"

You would love playing in the deep snow Sue, well for a few minutes anyway :-D

Just think of the roaring log fires and convivial company, whisky for our OH,s, G&Tfor Tec, red wine for me and orange juice for you - what could be nicer

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 16 Feb 2015 21:46

I'll just be the deliriously excited tag along that is very pleased where ever it is ( I don't get out much you know ) :-)

Sue - It would be an unforgettable experience for you, if only to show you how much you have missed since your family chose to live in OZ :-D :-D :-D

Actually, I know some excellent Welsh pubs :-P Unfortunately, they don't qualify on the basis of altitude.

Warm and sunny outside - do I really want to leave that for winter in Scotland? Mmmm.......

Of course you can join us Amanda. We have been visiting the highest pubs in England , Scotland and Wales. Sadly the Welsh pubs were a let down, but the English ones held their own :-D

Well he must have hide the trepidation well Tec ......lol Yes , I'm sure there is wonderment there as well :-) He may have been wondering if he will go fishing with him in the future .

I like the sound of a cyber tour :-D

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 16 Feb 2015 21:33

Yes Linda, it would be good to stay here for a couple of days - the area is very interesting. :-)
The bar looks cosy too :-D

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 16 Feb 2015 21:31

I don't see horror in OHs face :-D I see wonderment between the old and the new.

Not suggesting OH is old :-D but you know what I mean.

We are indeed on a cyber tour of the highest pubs/hotels in Britain. Linda is in charge of the route, and finding venues.
We started in Yorkshire and the Lake District, now we are in Scotland before heading South.

I'm sure there is room on the bus should you wish to join us :-D

Happy birthday Amanda, I have just been looking at your photos.

Thank you Tec :-) Regarding OH holding the baby , it was the first time he has been tempted into holding either of them , he looks a bit horrified I think ......lol we are not used to little little ones in out tribe !

The cake was delicious , homemade carrot cake and of course I have saved some for all of you :-D

Are we on some sort of pub crawl here then ?

Good Morning Sue,

If we are lucky enough to get snowed in we could go skiing, snow boarding, just having fun in the snow :-D

The next place we are visiting looks very nice Linda. Getting snowed in would be fun :-)
