Memory lane
No trip to Pateley Bridge is complete without a visit to the oldest sweet shop in England (aren't they all) to stock up on Tiger Nuts (me) and Sherbert Lemons and Flying Saucers (Jan). It wasn't until we'd seen the shop, on a Nigel Slater programme some time ago, that we fully appreciated this retro sweet shop. Tiger Nuts are a delicacy that I used to buy some 50 years ago on my way to or from St Michaels College in Leeds.
Anyway, the sweet shop is directly opposite Kendall's Farm Butchers where they sell, amongst other things, award winning pies (don't they all) and where I get my once in every six months beef and onion pies. Scrummy.

Now that's my kind of a day out - a sweet shop and a pie shop. Add in a visit to Majestic wine and I'd be well sorted!
