beryl the yellow peril

Been down to Leeds this week, a great opportunity to catch up with friends and family all who seem to be thriving at varying rates.. As usual I was trying to pack too much in and I had wanted to go to the Hepworth Gallery in Wakefield but it wasnt to be this time which is a great shame as then I caught this article and it made me want to go even more... next time.

a little bit of sunshine where ever we go...

It's built on a hill it with lots of lovely white houses with stunning red roofs.   In order to get the best of it we walked along the sea front until we got to the cable car and we took it up the hill.  It was a really good ride much longer than we imagined and it's quite weird because it goes right through the town -  completely over everybody's house...  So not only do you get a lovely vista of the bay but you can view the beautiful rooftops and get to look in everybody's gardens and to look at their picnic sets.. clean washing nice plants... scratty backyards.... We got off th
