Went up Sutton Bank to see the White Horse of Kilb Went up Sutton Bank to see the White Horse of Kilburn. Don’t know why I never thought of coming up here with Reuben before. It’s not like I spent my whole childhood being overlooked by this landmark. 😄  Think we picked the best day of the half term to go up too. Sunny, autumnal and a little bit brisk. Such amazing views too, you can see for miles around from up on the bank top, stunning Yorkshire scenery no less. 🍂

Beamish. Pumpkins, queuing for chips and chips. 🎃 Walked loads. It was really quite cold but the sun shone. Perfect Autumn aesthetic. Wish we opted for pasties instead.

The clocks will be going back before we know it. 🍂 

Went to the deer park at Studley Royal (Ripon) at the weekend.  Rutting season’s coming so it sounds like Jurassic Park with the bellowing bucks and stags. 🦌 It was a really nice Autumnal day scented with sweet chestnuts and turning leaves; sunny with a cosy cardi on. ☺️
