Yorkshire's Herriot Country...




Great days out as well as excellent places to stay. Ian Ashton and David Shields have tonight unwrapped "their baby". Both work exceeding hard for the tourism industry. With government cuts and the disbandment of tourist schemes left right and centre. Even us old hands didn't know what we were supposed to be called or what flag was flying for us. Now we are sorted. We are safely under the wing of Welcome to Yorkshire.com. The meeting was held at the Watermill at Carlton Miniott just outside Thirsk. Robin Fletcher supplied us all with a delicious supper which was made for giants. Also thanks to the Grand Central Railway for their very generous gesture in printing brochures. I briefly spoke to Sean Murricane who is the E-Business manager for Welcome to Yorkshire. He is making some sweeping changes to the main website and only good can come of this.He has lots of common sense maybe that comes with where he was brought up -Scotland the next best place to Yorkshire.
