Guest Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 There may be a change of plan a foot.... Sadly it won't be me, but Michael has the weekend off work and has suggested that he'd like to go out Bit of a cheek if you ask me Anyway its a toss up between here, and Middleton. He didn't enjoy Middleton last time he went, but it is only a 40 minute drive away! So, can we have some directions please.... and a rough kind of journey time. AND/OR is anyone going from our neck of the woods that could give him a lift? (he's not a handful like I am - honest) Link to comment

AND/OR is anyone going from our neck of the woods that could give him a lift? (he's not a handful like I am - honest) Hi Kirsty Me & hubby are going, but we are leaving about lunch time to give us time to see the in laws up there & we are staying up there, so that probably isnt much good to him. Otherwise we would have gladly given him a lift. It is an hour and a half from Leeds straight up the A1, so I reckon an hour & 3/4 from Huddersfield. I think he would really enjoy it. I've only been there once, but there is something for everyone music wise, the people are cracking up there & the atmosphere is good. Bit of a trek for him for though. At least if he goes out this weekend, he wont complain about you going crazy at The Wilton next week I am letting the hubby loose in Prestatyn next week, which means I cant be at The Wilton, but I am sure you will keep the troops entertained.
