We went camping in Leek as, planned from Thursday to Monday and it was absoulety fantastic; well worth waiting for. You could tell that summer is around the corner; the weather was glorious. Chris brought the bike with us as he needed to go back to work for a few hours in the afternoon.
Thursday and Friday we spent around Leek and the campsite but on Saturday we went to visit Rudyard lake and then went to a water mill, where we got a guided tour. Saturday night Stan and Anna came to visit and we had a bbq and some beers that they kindly brought. It was a great night, watching photos, listening to music and just chatting. It was decided that we would come back next month for a "girly" weekend, when Chris is on the Isle of Man.
On sunday, we went first took the bike to Matlock Bath where we spent some time looking at all the other bikes lined up the streets and had a gorgeous dinner in a nice pub where they had a huge no smoking area. We then moved on to Buxton where we just had a look at the shops and Chris bought some tools from a market inside the Crown hotel.
Sunday night we relaxed at the tent, watching telly and finishing off the beers. The fresh air makes us tired so when we go camping we tend to go bed early so therefore it's a good way to catch up with plenty of sleep.
On monday morning, after breakfast, we packed up and just as I started to drive off in the car; it started drizzling a bit. That was good timing wasn't it? Whilst we were at the site, I took the opportunity to book for the next two bank holidays in May. They were almost booked up but managed to just fit us in. The first one will be on the 4th of May; can't wait now.
