Well we are off for a break in Yorkshire tomorrow. Going to Appletreewick for a few days.
Keep an eye out for the Big Red Volvo with a roof box on the top.
Looking forward to some Yorkshire tea and parkin.

I love the fact they call it Yorkshire tea, it's clearly not grown in Yorkshire, so it's just a marketing ploy to make northerners buy it. :D

almost everyone in the UK buying ££££e in bags for years, I try to use loose tea when I remember to get it, can be cheaper & better quality. A big thing is made overseas of 'English Breakfast' tea for example & the only link to the UK it has is either packaging or even just a distribution office
I've met people who were surprised to know that tea is not grown routinely in the UK
