It seems like a long time since I finished archive ferreting in Leeds. It is great to be back home and settled into my old life again but I miss the good times and great friends I made while I was there.
This weekend is both a long needed break for Sean and I together but is also a chance to catch up with the Leeds gang and introduce Sean to them. Tomorrow we will go through to Leeds for Lindsay's birthday party but tonight we are in York. It is a beautiful evening and the city is so wonderful.
We arrived late so dropped off our bags and went out for some food. Several places were fully booked so we eventually ended up in an Italian restaurant overlooking the Minster. In its former life it was York School for Girls and the interior has been maintained as it was in the past. There are several seperate rooms and as we were in a small room at the front of the building we figured it was probably the secretary's office. My seat was next to the door that probably lead into the Headmistresses office!
The hotel is in the centre of the city and seems to be having some work done. The communal areas are quite shabby but he room is fine. There is a four poster bed an a lovely, modern bathroom. The decore however is purple and lime! An acquired taste methinks!
