We are at Knaresborough heading tomorrow for brimam rocks to do a bit of climbing and bordering.
We wer out on the bikes today
Then the boys were on there scooters.
Whare thay find the energy or is it I am getting old

can't help much with the phone but if you have a slot for a card in the back you can transfer photos etc to it . Have a great time, if the grandkids are anything like mine you will need a holiday to recover

I've just done a bit of research on t'internet and came across this, written in 1894:

“East of the guide’s house are the famous Rocking Stones, consisting of a group of four rocks, which were discovered to be movable in the year 1786. The two on the west side weighing approximately 50 and 25 tons, require but little force to vibrate, while those on the east side, though much smaller are not so well poised and do not move readily. Each of the larger stones has a basin-like cavity on the top, and a kind of knee-hole open to the north, said to be the work of Druids."

Don't know where the guide's house is though.

They certainly do Bill - the boys look so happy, excited and - lets face it - pleased with themselves! It's wonderful to be able to give such fabulous lifelong memories to them both.
Lots of great memories for me too, messing about in jeans, tee-shirt and trainers, probably dangerous but who cared in those days? - you saw a rock, you scrambled up, down and all over it!
I'm guessing you're having a great time too???

 

[parknride]

We had great fun on brimham rocks many years ago when our boys were small. Bill, your pics have made me want to go back for a visit and you all look to be having such a fabulous time. Stuff memories are made of for the boys.
