Leeds - Otley.
It was a cold morning as Brian, John and Colin assembled in Leeds City Bus Station for the 11:00 Leeds to Otley.
Arriving in Otley at 11:50 we made our way down to Weegmanns pie shop where Brian purchased a healthy salad sandwich and I sought to buy two pork pies consuming one immediately. John deciding his Greggs meal deal purchase in Leeds bus Station was sufficient.
We then made our way down to the park and returned to the spot where last December we were unable to complete our walk due to mud and my temporary blindness.
The riverside was our next stop as we decided to get close and personal occasionally taking the main path as we headed towards Pool Bank. We continued in this trajectory until we all decided that we had walked far enough and traced our steps back to the bridge where we crossed over to the other side and meandered back in to Otley for a cup of coffee where I was the only participant.
After our brief break we made our way back to Otley bus station and bumped into Steve Middleton and his wife Sandra. At this point we got on the ilkley bus which was fine for the Middleton’s as that’s where they were going for a meal but not for me, John and Brian who were meant to be travelling to Leeds to view an exhibition taking place in Queens Square, a 7meter globe of the Earth as viewed by the Astronauts. Never mind! Maybe next time.
Another good day full of excitement and diversions but not enough to dampen our spirits.
