Tuesday 10th May
We left Don & Fiona - headed for Leek and ambling through the countryside - so pretty rolling hills and green fields. We are also passed the highest point in England near Buxton in Derbyshire. Buxton quite large and has a very high viaduct/very old stone work on edge of town. The builders must have been resourceful in raising these stone bricks so high. All the little stone walls that form fences have been here for so long. The Derbyshire dales in and around Peak National Park - so pretty. Passed a wind farm outside Worksop. Entered Robin Hood country at lunch time. From there we passed through Gainsborough, and coulden't find a loo and crossed out legs and headed for Scunthorpe!!!! A common problem in thus country.
Joined the M180/181 and continued on to Grimbsy and continued through to Cleethorpe where we are spending the night in a very pleasant hotel.
