I'm off to York with my sister on a coach trip for the day 2nd December. It's to York Xmas market & a lot of time for shopping round Swinegate & The Shambles! We are really excited. Makes a nice change to Sunday cleaning etc etc!!!

 

Hubby's are on chook & horse duty that day! We leave at 7.30am on the Sunday morning and come back about 5pm from York.

Mulled wine, roasted chestnuts & mincepies from Starbucks!!!! Yummy!!!!

Sounds like a lovely day out. York is a beautiful city with so much to see and do.

 

(Hello Dan! Nice to see you here)

[Egluntyne]

Have a great day!

 

Don't forget to go to Betty's Tea Rooms.

[Laura & CTB]

Have a lovely time Emma!

 

On my list of places to go but a bit too far for a day trip

 

Tell us all about it!

[Couperman]

York, that has a nice ring to it as does 'New' York

oi, stop being cryptic

[Snowy]

Oi, you two, no domestics on here!

 

Hope you have a good time Emma - I went to York Christmas market many years ago (on the train ). It was wonderful!

[Guest]

I love York too and my little Godson lives there (he was 1 on Thursday )

 

Dan, my family went to the Railway Museum in August and said it was absolutely brilliant. 18yo girl said it was one of the best places she had ever been - and she wasn't interested before she went!

 

Some people from Surrey did a day trip to York on the train (for Godson's christening) but it is quite expensive.

 

Have a great time on December 2nd!

I love York

[Egluntyne]

Him Indoors grew up in York.

 

I love it.

[chickenlass]

I live just outside York!! Hope you have lovely time shopping. I always think there is a nice atmosphere in York at this time of the year

The only think missing is a good chicken shop!

[ubereglu]

Ooh, that sounds fun. I'm due to go Christmas hopping in Cardiff, so we can pick up my sister for Christmas the second weekend before Christmas Day!

[Egluntyne]

York would be another good spot for an Omlet meet!

[Snowy]

Oooh, Dan, I need to take the boys to see the trains at York! When are the steamies there? Do you mean a big wheel train, a Sterling Single? Would love to see one of those!

[Egluntyne]

York would be another good spot for an Omlet meet!

 

Tie it in with all those special visiting steam engines next Summer and you can put us down for it - they have a big wheel there now too!

 

Any idea of the dates?

DH, a friend, her hubby and myself got stuck on that wheel for ages at the top when we went to York... Still... was a nice view...

 

Heres the view....

 

 

Heres the wheel itself.

 

 

York is lovely. We went there for a long weekend with some close friends and had a fantastic time! The boys especially liked the railway museum. Marie and i left them to it and went shopping... Came back to find DH had taken loads of photos of random trains!

[Snowy]

Oh a real big wheel! Not a train then

Looks great, must get up to see it soon!

[Couperwife]

Helen thanks for the pic from the top of the wheel.

 

now I never have to go up in it

 

I went on the London Eye in the summer (with 20 odd year 7's) - didnt enjoy it much, needed to hold on

 

dont like heights much (cant for the life of me work out why I have taken up indoor rock climbing ) - or rather, dont like the falling part much

The Flying Scotsman was in bits, is he back to his former glory yet?
