We met some very nice people in church yesterday! They invited us to go to a pub for drinks. We went to The Greyhound in the village of Tong a few miles down the hill. The Greyhound is a 16th century inn, famous for their unique Toby mugs, each representing a famous person. We even saw a George Washington. There is a cricket pitch behind the pub. It would be fun to watch cricket sometime this summer!

Next we went to The Adelphi, a 1901 Victorian tavern in Leeds with beautiful woodwork and tiles. It was the flagship pub for the Tetley brewing company of Leeds.Read more

TravelerI tried a shandy (half lemonade and half beer)--pretty good! Dean had a local beer from the pump.

Fantastic photos. It looks like the weather you are having is comparable to what have been having in Minnesota. I’m glad you made it to England with no additional delays. Nancy is now in a care facility since February. The kids said I all but had to. Her doctor told me as her sole caregiver I would not out live her. Mother’s Day week we both tested positive for Covid-19. We are back to normal. Del & Nancy. [Del & Nancy]
