Tom, of course was very pleased - he always likes a day out on the train. We got the late train in, so on arrival to Leeds went straight to the restaurant. The food was as good as we remember, but the service was better. I was 'Madam', Matt 'Sir' and Tom 'Young Master'. The waiter got down on his knees to speak to Tom and made him feel very special.
It wasn't the cheapest meal we've ever had (mainly because Tom is such a dustbin - he had a child's macaroni cheese and half an adult's portion of ribs) but it was very lovely, and anyway we won on the lottery this weekend which exactly paid for it - so you could say it was free. Certainly a good fooding experience.
We spent the rest of the day looking round shops, I got myself a swimsuit from Bravissimo which fits me perfectly (a first), and Tom was treated to a pot of pick and mix lego for a good school report. We then went to Wasabi and bought ourselves some sushi to take home for tea. A good day.

| Chocolate from the magic tree |

| Cuddles |
Sunday morning we went round to the Atkinsons for a play. We then headed over to Barbon for lunch in the cafe and then to Blindbeck Bridge for a play and a little walk. This is the walk with the magic chocolate tree - there is always chocolate waiting for him in a particular tree on the path, so we had to go and find it.

| Playing trolls |
We then strolled back, played trolls on the bridge, and then went the scenic way back to Ingleton along the road with the many bridges that need to be manually opened. We then had a lazy afternoon at home.
