...Kirkstall Abbey. Just been re-opened after a bit of TLC. Very impressive.

It's about half a mile from where I live.

We've been watching the progress with great interest. At least now there's not so much likelihood of a lump of masonry falling on your head. ;)

Drove past the other week and it did look very groovy. A visit does indeed sound in order. :D

I'm moving just across the road from there (almost literally) at the beginning of December...

If you mean the West End, then yes! Couldn't complain about that as a local!

I do quite like it there, though I must admit I prefer the food at Viva Cuba! What are we like? We should write our own tourist guide! :wink:

The place is really, really beautiful though. Unlike my current 'rushed into' abode. Shudder. Can't wait really... :D

The problem I have with Viva Cuba is that "custom has staled its infinite variety" ;)

Although it's worth going to to start a night on the pîss on a Friday Night :lol:
