Weekend Wander round Bradshaw, Slaithwaite Huddersfield

5 February 2020 Leave a Comment

Purely because I’m trying to get us all out and about more this year, we went on a wander round Bradshaw, a small hamlet near Slaithwaite in Huddersfield. Unfortunately for us it didn’t quite go to plan. I had thought there was a pub there so we could park up, have a wander round and then go for a lunch afterwards. The road to the pub was full of potholes, one of which was so big and deep we were forced to turn the car around and find an alternative route. We parked up eventually. Unfortunately the pub was shut. Typical.

The weather was awful as well. It was misty and wet. We ended up walking through really boggy fields, some of which had mud so wet and deep Mr R had to carry Holly through them!

We managed a circular route of around 5km, and the scenery would have been incredible if the weather was better.

Thankfully we had brought Haribo with us to bribe Holly and keep her energy levels up while we walked. We also met a gorgeous pig and some horses – we always like to stroke a horse!

Yes, I’m THAT woman out with a camera, taking pictures of everything and anything that moves!

 

 

Despite the disgusting weather and mud, we had a lovely walk out over the tops. It’s definitely a walk we’ll do again, but maybe we’ll wait until the weather has warmed up a little. The views will be amazing on a clear day!

 

If you like this, why not check out some of our other walks? This was a circular wander round Bradshaw, Slaithwaite which we found using the Geocaching app – I can’t recommend this enough for a cheap or free family activity! We’ve been all over, and discovered so many new places.

After trying to trick my paperwhite daffodils into After trying to trick my paperwhite daffodils into thinking it was winter by having them in the bottom of the fridge for a few weeks, they're having their revenge. I meant to put them in for a few weeks then plant them up before Christmas. I forgot, and only remembered about them a couple of weeks ago. Since then they appear to have gone on strike and are refusing to grow. Even the ones outside in the actual winter are growing, but these ones are not 🙈 At this rate I'll be left with empty pots 😂

How are we all doing?

Sunday! Woohoo! Not that I have any plans today be Sunday! Woohoo! Not that I have any plans today because you know, lockdown and all that. Looks like it'll be a day of walking, roast dinner and the never ending stream of Star Wars that seems to be on my TV at the moment - that bloody theme song is always in my head!

Its Holly's latest obsession, and if she's not watching a film she's watching the Mandalorian or playing an Xbox game to do with it. I'm not feeling the usual screen time guilt though because it's lockdown, the weather has been shit and she can't see her friends. We're surviving, not thriving at the moment x

Throwing it back to when my hallway wasn't full of Throwing it back to when my hallway wasn't full of wood 🙈 We've had the wood delivered for a project but so far haven't had the time or inclination to start it. I don't know what's happened to me! I was painting, panelling and shwazzing up everywhere before but I seem to have lost my mojo a bit these days. Maybe this weekend we'll start...?

Swipe to see the panelling progress...

A quick transformation Tuesday for you today - it' A quick transformation Tuesday for you today - it's all too easy to be influenced by what you see on the gram, and this is me confessing to that! I loved seeing all the dark walls in other people's houses so wanted one. It was fine for a while, but I couldn't live with it so we came back to the light side. This is definitely more me! Have you been influenced by what you see on here?

I've either got no time because of home school and all of Holly's zoom calls - I'm basically her PA now - or the house is a tip because we're all trying to work out of it! So here's an old pic of the bathroom. Happy Saturday!

I've had freezing cold feet all day today despite I've had freezing cold feet all day today despite three pairs of socks. I need some new slippers as the ones I had before were making me so statically charged I was getting electric shocks off everything - even my plant Malcolm! Sick of being some kind of poor man's Palpatine (one for the Star Wars geeks out there) I need to get some new slippers. Any recommendations for leather soled ones. 

Totally unrelated pic of Holly's room - only this part of it is presentable! I've got plans to channel my inner nana and crochet a blanket for in here but when I'll have time for that in between work, home school and drinking copious amounts of red wine, I'm not sure!

So good to have the house back to normal! It was f So good to have the house back to normal! It was filthy underneath all the decorations, so I've spent the afternoon cleaning and tidying (obvs had to document this for the Gram). Can't beat a good old tidy up! What a wild New Year's Day.
