General - Yorkshire for a few days

What a poor old place.  I had a snuffle around the main street and I could smell cigarette smoke when ever a group of people congregated.  The pubs had no life and were listless with no proper beer.  It felt rather strange back in this village I’ve known for 28 years and to go around the streets I know so well with the GPS.    It looks like I shall be staying in my parents house over the weekend as my Barnsley demo has been rescheduled for Monday then I’ll probably be in Stoke on Tuesday and then Birmingham on Wednesday so I really won’t get much chance to get home and pack stuff, get dry-cleaning done and generally spend time in the gaff for which I pay my rent before we set off on our jaunt around Ireland.  I’m not sure what to do with myself in Yorkshire for the weekend but at least it should keep me out of trouble unless I head out to meet up with old school friends.

I went out with my dad and Seann tonight and had 4 or 5 gloriously creamy powerfully tasting and beautiful pints of Barnsley Bitter.  I can tell winters coming in because the air was rather chilled still and everything was silent as the dog and I arrived back at my parents place.  Saying that as I type the sun is out and I’m on my way to work.
