A bit of a theme developing

Back to Helmsley, a pretty relatively local village, for a walk with the two DSs around the local stately pile and castle. All very manicured.
Then a country drive to find the Star, a Michelin starred pub with poor service. Archetypal English pub though as can be seen in the image.
Back home and then Tricia and I popped out to catch up with the Wellington friends again briefly in the Fauconberg Arms, Coxwold. 
Excellent game pudding to be eaten on our return
