SNAPSHOT! Shrewsbury, I Had Cake So Hate Me !

After a good stroll around a sugar rush was needed so I headed for the Cafe on the Cop.

As any regular readers of these ramblings will know I like a proper market. Dream catchers and scented candles have their place but you cannot beat a decent, old fashioned market. Shrewsbury is one of those. I am not the biggest fan of the building’s architecture but the contents are superb. Fresh fruit and veg, meat and fish plush some extremely tidy places to eat. Put it on your list…….

Right, you join me as my train home speeds through the Scottish Borders under evening skies growing leadend with grey clouds. It’s been another great day out, catching up with my good mate Gareth the G-Man.

I’m lucky in that I live within an easy striking distance of the English Lake District. It’s either a couple of hours or so in the car or a similar journey time by train to Windermere. Obviously it’s a popular destination which can make the roads busy so I have a preference for using the train. Not everyone’s cup of tea but it makes it worthwhile if I’m speeding along on the train and I pass traffic jams on the motorway’s or other roads.

When you think of bananas I don’t suppose the steel city of Sheffield is the first place that comes to mind

Being out and about enjoying yourself can be an exhausting business so after a walk around the cathedral and castle I carried on up the street and came across Cafe Misto. I took it as a sign and treated myself to the above coffee and brownie, sat outside in the sun. It’s hard work but it’s a sacrifice I’m happy to make on your behalf. https://lincolncathedral.com/things-to-do-lincoln/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwspKUBhCvARIsAB2IYuu90s47YtTSMJ_15U-6RlUY42_4mMcEBxkCppZHXLAVjzOUFum6tUYaAqxvEALw_wcB https://www.visitlincoln.com/things-to-do/visitor-information-centre https://restaurantguru.com/Misto-coffee-shop-Lincoln-England https://www.alamy.com/portfolio/imagesbylachlan https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/
