 Pannett Park at Whitby. One of my favourite places ever. Whenever I am in Whitby I always make sure I spend time in this park. Peaceful and so much to see and sense every time you visit. Beautiful.

School Trip

  I went on a school trip when I was young and I have never forgotten it. We didn't go far and we were going to another school. To get there we had to cross fields and walk in meadows. As we came to the top of the hill I vividly remember thinking how beautiful the landscape was; full of yellow and white flowers as far as I could see. Rolling hills that seemed to go on forever. We climbed the top of the hill and before me was an old school, small in stature but magnificent to look at. A Victorian structure with a playground and yard to the side of it.  We went into the school, as it was part of our history education and it was being used for us children to learn all about life as a child in Victorian England. We did a class on chalk boards and then went to play in the playground. I could not stop thinking that anyone who went to that school was so lucky. Everything about it was magnificent. I have never forgotten that trip and it will live in my memory forever.

Julian would welcome sweetness, even though he did not normally have sugar in his tea. Mary made a small curtsy before leaving the room. She was still laughing lightly to herself while briefly shaking her head. Julian just thought how close they seemed with a passing joke between themselves. Even though he had known Harriett for a number of years, this was the first time he had met Mary and there seemed something vaguely familiar about her, but could not put his finger on what that was.

  When both Julian and Harriett had their fill of cake, sandwiches and tea, Harriett rang the bell for Mary to come and collect the empty plates and cups. 'We will be retiring for the night now Mary so after you have cleared everything you may retire as well.'  'Thank you. I have made sure that the room is made up for Mr Swire's stay.' 'Thank you Mary, and thank you for the lovely food. It was appreciated by us both.' Mary made a slight smile and bowed her head. 'I would just like to thank you as well Mary. It was all most welcome.' Julian smiled at Mary and she again bowed her head and started to collect all the items on the table. Harriett looked over to Julian, 'Let me show you to your room.' She guided him with an outstretched arm through to the main hall and to the staircase as Julian firstly gathered his coat and bag. They both ascended the stairs and turned to their left into the upstairs hall. Passing a couple of doors, they arrived a...
