Don't worry, Tim, we'll all descend on you and have a 'Finish Tim's Car for the Northern' party

It was those 1920's / 30's Rolls Royces that held us up last time

After much thinking the route will be similar to last years as it keeps us out of the 'busy' grassington / skipton area

Having researched into it, I don't think Tan Hill was the interior of the Slaughtered Lamb.

It was used in an Xfiles/American werewolf spoof advert for Vodaphone.

Its most famous roll was for the 'Everest' Double glazing advert... see bottom of this link for an update on the Everest Lifetime guarantee

I'll probably be able to make the Saturday drive again. I say 'probably' to avoid asking for something to go wrong on my car.

I won't need accommodation.
