.

went to the 11 th Earl for breakfast this is the 2nd sunday running when really we shouldnt be pigging out like we do , you can eat as much as you want and we did plus had two cups of coffee to wash it all down for £12 its a proper bargin and the food is always well cooked .

Went to Pendle where the witches came from and Downham where Whistle down the wind was filmed in the 60,s we tried to find the farm house where it was filmed to no avail we was not sure its exact location Helen went to Witches Galore a shop she wanted to go to for ages , it was hot for a change we walked round stopped for a can of coke and went back home on the way we stopped of at Golden acre park and walked Pip again , this time getting a Magnum ice cream. Once nearer home stopped and got a large bottle of pear cider another weekend coming to a close , least we had some sun.

P.S The trials of the Pendle witches in 1612 are among the most famous witch trials in English history, and some of the best recorded of the 17th century. The twelve accused lived in the area around Pendle Hill in Lancashire, and were charged with the murders of ten people by the use of witchcraft. All but two were tried at Lancaster Assizes on 18–19 August 1612, along with the Samlesbury witches and others, in a series of trials that have become known as the Lancashire witch trials. One was tried at York Assizes on 27 July 1612, and another died in prison. Of the eleven who went to trial – nine women and two men – ten were found guilty and executed by hanging; one was found not guilty.
