Thursday 20th

Not so busy today
Roma went to the Halifax Minster, the new name for our ancient Parish Church, where she helps out as a ' welcommer ' for visitors.

The Terriers enjoyed a romp on Norland Moor, but Jessie now knows where to stay digging to try and find some creature under a rock.

This evening we went out to Ripponden but The Fox was not serving food so we tried the Turnpike on Rishworth Moor, it has been much upgraded and the food and attention by the staff was excellent. Quite busy and some Motor Bikers were in the Bar and sitting out on the front tables.
From the front you can watch the traffic on the M62 beyond the Reservoir.

In Ripponden we saw the newly erected ' Blue Plaque ' on a house stating that the Co-op Store was opened here in 1832. It is a project by Ryburn History Group who claim the Co-op was a first before the famous one in Rochdale
