So we've let our friends choose a B&B (they don't arrive till tomorrow) and there's literally nothing to do. We're in Monk Fryston - we thought we were going to Harrogate!

Can anyone recommend good bars/restaurants near here? We aren't local... I have no clue Grin

Ah, you're just up the road from where my ex FIL lives now. He bought a house there from abroad at very short notice, when he got a job at Leeds Uni. He assumed he'd be living a life of cocktails and designer shopping too, until he got there and realised it would be a life of being stuck in a traffic jam Mon - Fri and staring at flat fields with neighbours who couldn't comprehend him at the weekend Grin. He does love it now though.

Go through a wood, over the bridge come out in escrick. About 10 mins down the road from it if you find the pig wi' 2 legs you've gone too far.

Hopefully this will entertain me...

RachJx your weekend away thread has made me laugh, thanks!

Where are you going to after the outlet mall? Are you wearing your 'naice' shorts and high heels? Please post a pic!
