A Night in Beverley, A Day In Hull

Got up here about 6:30pm yesterday, after a very long drive. Traffic was mental, it taking over 3 and half hours to do what normally takes 2 hours 45 minutes.

Off out for beers and Ian's 25th birthday curry in Beverley. The second best curry house local to Nigel's pad, the best one still being Bengal Brasserie in Market Weighton ;-) Mum drove the Bemmer, and I left my car in the town. Just about managed to get everyone back in one car, but it involved Kev having to bundle himself in the boot. Well, they do say the BMW has a boot big enough to hide a body ;-)

Up bright and early to watch the wildlife in the garden, including the resident Green Woodpecker try as he did to pull a worm from the garden. Too much hardwork it seemed, he instead disappearing off to the hen coup for breakfast ;-)

Took Dawn into Hull and to The Deep, followed by a whistlestop tour of the city centre and all it has to offer. Naturally, we had to grab a bag of chips, proof that they don't do them like they do them up here ;-)

Back now at GT Electrical waiting to shut up shop before we go home and get ready for a night out on Beverley Road. A chance to introduce Dawn to a few of my Northern pals, and also to what has to be the cheapest night out I know. And takeaway at 2am, I'm sure :-D
