Wife’s gone to the room and I’m sitting feeling very pleased with myself having learned how to take  selfies using my watch to launch the camera :lol: 

 

Getting some strange looks from afar.

 

TBH, the first few goes were like

I was up the road at Prologue cycles at lunch. 

 

Enjoy your stay.

In Rome at the moment. Pretty much every cafe and bar sells bottles of Tennents Super, very odd. I think it is considered a craft beer here rather than it’s true purpose of keeping tramps warm.

 

 

Scottish jakey beer is probably considered exotic there, like Peroni Nastro Azzuro was here until for some inexplicable reason fake Italian beer appeared eveywhere. 

 

Just wait until you sit down for dinner.

:lol: no fucking way this is true. Have you got your massive pig's trotters stuffed into a pair of those free slipper/flip flop things they give you too?

Yes, what’s wrong with that? It is a fucking Spa town after all.

I'd love to believe that you've been sat taking selfies all afternoon with your balls hanging out the bottom of a dressing gown, but I can't bring myself to do it. 

 

Which means I have to believe the alternative - that you've gone out in a white terry towelling coat.

I’m sure this guy is famous, possibly a comedian. Does anyone recognise him? It’s doing my head in :lol:

And I’m pretty sure it’s not Peter Withe


That’s the love child of Johnny Mercer and Alan Titchmarsh.

So, just a recommendation for Harrogate. It’s ok I suppose for a 1 nighter. 

 

Hotel an absolute steal. White hart hotel, rooms from £50 a couple and a lovely pub (the fat badger),  attached. Loads of outdoor heated covered seating and a very good location for the town centre. Rooms are very nice as well. Cocktails are excellent according to the cruelty inspector and a canny selection of beers and real ales.

 

We didn’t eat here but the food getting served up looks very nice.

 

We ate at an Italian called Vivaldo which was superb if a bit pricey, then up to John street which has a nice selection of pubs and a few games of pool. (Won 2-1. Would have been 3-0 potted the black and white together).

 

it gets a solid 6.8 You’re welcome.

It's good is the fat badger. I really enjoy working in Harrogate it's canny. Decent bars and food places. Nice place to have a wander at lunch.
