Medieval things like the Queen? :P

More medievalier than that!   :2thumbsup:


For some reason, I have always longed to travel back in time to medieval England.
I assume I feel a connection to it because of some of my ancestry, but why that particular period in time?
I'm not sure, it just fascinates me. One day I must  get to England, preferably to Ripon, where some of my roots are.  :viking:

There is a place in ripon called 'fountains abbey'  which dates back to the year 1100.   i think it was founded by monks.  anyway it's well worth a visit on your forthcoming trip cbc!!

Oooo I love medieval stuff! I will definitely Google that now, and one day I may be standing in it for real!   :2thumbsup:

i got family in north yorkshire too,  so i been there quite a bit.  Parts of yorkshire seem to me to be almost 'timeless'  -  all cloth caps and whippets!  The people are friendly too cbc i am sure they would give you a warm welcome

i have found generally the further north you go,  the friendlier the people get (in england)
blah blah blah

Medieval things like the Queen? :P

More medievalier than that!   :2thumbsup:


For some reason, I have always longed to travel back in time to medieval England.
I assume I feel a connection to it because of some of my ancestry, but why that particular period in time?
I'm not sure, it just fascinates me. One day I must  get to England, preferably to Ripon, where some of my roots are.  :viking:

There is a place in ripon called 'fountains abbey'  which dates back to the year 1100.   i think it was founded by monks.  anyway it's well worth a visit on your forthcoming trip cbc!!

Fountains Abbey and the surroundings are absolutely gorgeous.

Could we one day meet in Ripon CBC? Been a long I was there.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I should be getting some sleep, learning about something, and being a better tree hugger.
