Boats, bikes and steam

 August bank holiday saw us back at Papplewick Pumping Station for their classic bike weekend. We jumped in the car on the Sunday and popped down for a breakfast cob and a look round the bikes on show. Many of the bikes were also on show last year but there one or two that I quite fancied.


The boats were out and about on the cooling pond.


as were the geese.


Since most of the people were outside, we took the opportunity to head in and again admire the Victorian workmanship.





We have been supporters of this museum for many years, as you may have noticed that we visit 2 or 3 times a year.

It's that time of year again

 August back holiday generally means a trip out to Papplewick Pumping station for the classic bike show and this year did not disappoint. We spent a couple of hours there before I headed off to Lowdham show where the local guild had a display area.

No photos of the spinning but here are a few bikes for any two wheel enthusiasts still reading this blog.









and a touch of steam for any rail enthusiasts 


That's about it for now, I'm trying to plot out a couple of hat patterns to keep me busy, photos to follow.

speak soon xx
