Life plays out with The Boat House centre stage. A brief moment in time caught by the canal at Skipton in North Yorkshire.

@streetartutopia this is an amazing sculpture. Fairly sure it's in woods. Worth a visit if you're nearby

I also splurged on a biscoff milkshake which was absolutely to die for

Today's assignment: getting the LollaMac stall set up for the Artisan Made UK trade fair this weekend. When we arrived, this was an empty pen in Skipton Auction Mart; I think we've done a decent job of that.

#LollaMac #handmade #silver #Skipton

A pen inside an auction mart. The usual open bars of the pen have been lined with cloths. There is a display stand at the best with two shelves, with a mannequin to each side. There are pictures attached to the right side of the pen, a sign on the left, and fairy lights all around.Closer view of the display stand. Each shelf has an array of silver, copper and brass jewellery, mostly on wooden display stands.

It was a good afternoon out, and definitely really enjoyable to share another of our childhood holiday spots with our children.

Spotted this beautiful fungus when walking in #skipton woods.

The image depicts an old, stone courtyard within a historic castle or manor house. The architecture features large windows with wooden shutters and high ceilings supported by thick columns. There is a prominent tree in the center of the courtyard surrounded by ivy-covered walls. Various ornate decorative elements can be seen on the stonework, including carvings above doorways and around arched windows. A set of stone steps leads up to one side of the courtyard, while another staircase descends from an upper level visible through a window opening. The ground is paved with stones or tiles, showing signs of age and weathering. There are no people present in the scene, emphasizing its historical ambiance.

While we were staying in Yorkshire over the Easter break, we spent an afternoon in Skipton to have lunch and explore the castle.

Some highlights from today’s walk on the #LadyAnnesWay from #Skipton to #Grassington.

Woke up to blue skies for the first time in a week. I was warned by the man who made my breakfast (who was very friendly but apparently a realist) that the coming days are expected to be overcast, so I should enjoy the weather while it lasted.

25km on paper, 28.5km on the ground, with 570m total elevation gain.

I wonder if anyone else with a #Skipton Building Society #mortgage has seen the same recently?

They have a hound menu in addition to their human ones, and little dog friendly touches all around the cafe like loops to attach leads to & mats for them to rest on.

I have to take husband to the station for a 5.28 train in the morning. So off to bed and results should be rolling in then. We are in a rural area of farming and tourism and it's usually very #Tory. Skipton and Ripon is geographically below #Rishi in #Richmond and very similar demographics. Our current MP Julian Smith had a majority of 24,000 last time. However, I have only seen 2 Tory posters in this area but thankfully no #Reform ones at all... amusingly the big #Conservative hoarding in a field of cows on the road to #Skipton has been used as a scratching post and knocked over and partly eaten by our bovine chums...so..let's hope that's an omen!

@YorksBylines

I looked in order to check that the Yorkshire Party was included. It was.

Alas for the YP, the tactical voting choice in #Skipton and #Ripon is the LCP, which is best placed to end Julian Smith's parliamentary & CUP ministerial/whip career.

It's sad to see how alike the CUP and RUL candidates's responses were, given that the latter wants to abolish the human rights convention.

Before we headed to the castle, we took Gypsy & Katie with us to a little cafe in Skipton called Kibble Bakery, which is a lovely coffee house that caters to both canine and human diners.

Skipton Castle is a really well preserved medieval castle so it is really interesting to walk around, and learn about their three year siege during the civil war.

"James and I have been to the castle before, back before we were married, and we both used to visit with our various family members as children, so it was lovely to show the girls the well preserved castle in the centre of Skipton." bit.ly/3Jm6eXe

The dogs absolutely adored their very fancy dog biscuits, which we split between them to share – though Gypsy needed hers broken up a big as she isn’t as good at chomping on hard things as Katie is
