#4 - Bi-polar disco and meaty smoothies

Yesterday we made the venture to Danby to celebrate young Sam's 21st birthday. Today's picture is of the area where we stayed. It's near Botton Village somewhere. I can't put into words how nice the area was. The benches on the right were circled round a fire, people swam in the lake this morning. The building on the left played host to a lovely fire and a flute/guitar jam. It was magical. Emily also slept in the hut without a sleeping bag. She is the female Bear Grylls. Although she hasn't quite made it to sleeping in camels yet.

 I bought some awful red wine. It didn't even get half finished. That's how bad it was. Jono payed less for some class white wine. I got over it pretty quickly. Conclusion: I'm rubbish at picking wines. Someone needs to teach me about wine.

When we arrived in Danby last night we were lucky enough to sample some homemade sticky toffee pudding. It was probably the best thing I've ate all year. This morning we were treat to pretty much a full english at the Joiner residence. Some lovely lady from told us about when she had her 3rd nipple removed and that she thought the liposuction resembled a "meaty smoothie". In return for this wonderful ancedote we introduced this girl to brown sugar, teapots and filter coffee. A fair swap I'd say. After that we came up with three business ideas in the space of an hour. The best one was a clubnight named 'bi-polar disco' where people can queue up to choose a song. Like a request sheet, only you get to play the song yourself. A proper mash-up with everyone involved. Sounds class? If you'd like to invest in this then get in touch.

I'm pretty tired so I'm going to stop here but if you get the chance to you should visit Danby and the surrounding area too see it for yourself. It's bloody lovely. Also you should read up about Botton.
