Had a nice relaxing breakfast and a trip out to Reeth with Mum and Dad. Saw the lady about the dog and then continued up the hill to Keld to show Mum and Dad where we had been. The car needed petrol and a very important note for future reference everyone - most petrol stations are closed in Yorkshire on Sundays! Having ended up in Kirkby Stephen we eventually found some on the M6! Still, we had a nice trip back on a different route, saw the Ribblesdale Viaduct and had a nice lunch in the Inn on the hill somewhere near Ingleborough.
We returned back to Richmond and having retrieved our washing we sorted everything out for the morning.
We had arranged to meet up with Mike and Brian for a pint before going on to dinner at Rustique. We had a brilliant evening and it is so nice to have found a couple of great friends and shared a great experience with them. The last couple of days haven't been the same without them. They are off home tomorrow and hoping to complete the C2C next year sometime. We are obviously off again in the morning and we hope to meet up sometime in the future to compare notes!
Dad didn't like the sound of an 8.00am breakfast but I think they'll join us in the morning and wave us off!
The weather for the next few days looks pretty bad. We have been lucky(!?) to have had a few rain-free mornings this week but it looks like we'll be getting pretty wet quite early.
Oh well, maybe the sun will be shining over the north sea for us.
On to Lovesome Hill Farm tomorrow. A trip of around 16 miles along a mixture of roads and boggy fields. It's also the flattest section of the route so at least we'll get to give the legs a stretch before we hit the Yorkshire Moors!
Night Night all, hopefully more tomorrow if we have a signal or WiFi.
Matt & Dawn
