Well its been a while and I have devoted far more time to Facebook than to my trusty blog. A little update then.
My trusty cousin (sounds a bit like a horse doesnt she? now you come to mention it.........!)
and I went skipping off to Yorkshire recently to view the delights of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.When BJ as she is known hereabouts booked the farm on which we were to spend our two nights, I dont think either of us realised just what a haul it would be to get there.
It wasnt helped by the fact that the car of choice, the rover, had a problem with the water tank, fan and thermostat ,meaning that we had to stop and top her up every 30 miles.
Not only that but we also had to play mechanics and disconnect the fan at one point which mucked up the engine management system by....well, you surely arent interested in that.But we were proud of ourselves in that we asked for , nor accepted any help.
Farm was in a great location, 360 degree view from the top of a hill and a 10minute walk from a very decent steak house.
The park itself was a wonder.All free .You could make a donation if you wished .
We did. We also sneaked some pics in the underground gallery which you werent supposed to do because they wanted you to buy postcards , which we also did.
Check out the pics.Andy Goldsworthy was the artist who most inspired and Elizabeth Frinks naked men...sca
ry scary SCARY!!
Had a great time.On the second evening, in the middle of the night, the resident cat jumped through our bedroom window straight onto my bed.
How the hell did it manage that?!
Returned home safely.Next trip is to see Punchdrunk performing the Masque of the Red Death at Battersea arts centre.
Watch this space.
