Back from holiday in North Yorkshire


Hi everybody,

Just back from a week in a log cabin in North Yorkshire. Had a great time nice and relaxing (apart from the 18 mile walk I talked the OH into up some rather steep hills )

Went to Whitby and had some really nice fish & chips and just more or less relaxed for the week

Couldn't believe it on the 2nd day oh was looking out of the cabin and said "there is a cat outside in the forest with a kitten" thought he was joking, but no there was a mother cat with four gorgeous kittens, I tried to get closer to her but she just growled a lot at me, we kept our eyes on them to make sure they were ok and they were really thriving, kittens looked in excellent health and we really fun to watch playing and mum was healthy and really looking after them, she wouldn't take any food from us (tried some chicken) and she was catching food in the forest (saw her eating something a few times) I look a couple of photos and I will post them up, she was a tortie, with two ginger and white kittens, one black and white and one tortie.

Hi Elaine and Angie, well I got sunburnt on Sunday when we were out walking the 18 miles (took us 6 hours! LOL but half of that was uphill) the rest of the days were slightly overcast and it rained a couple of evenings, when we went to Whitby it was drizzling for the whole day but we had great fun. Yes Angie there were VERY nice (although a bit expensive F&C!!)

Wow! That sounds very up-market EmmaG! Log cabins with hot tubs - and resident cats. I would have enjoyed that walk too some years ago. I am very fond of North Yorkshire. OH and I have spent many lovely holidays up there.

Great photos - what a great looking cabin.
