Its such a picturesque place and has beautiful buildings and shops, and to be honest is more an up market little town where if you can afford to constantly buy from the little boutiques you must not be short of a bob or two..
I have family who live there and me and my lovely friend Ashley stayed there for a few nights during Leeds festival last year, the thing is, the town I feel needs a little bit of colour which quite frankly I think would be hard to if its anything compared to the dodgy looks we got, as we strutted down the main town in our doc martens and muddy wellies from the previous months festivals, whilst casually smoking a cigarette, we might of well have ran down the street naked....
as we also have a love for all things VINTAGE we went a little place called Space which promised to be the best vintage stockists around and being the geeks we are, we got mega excited about this...
feeling slightly disappointed as I wasn't really what we were used to but still nice to see locally stores like that doing well, it did feel like a tumble weed moment when we walked in as clearly we weren't known by these people and felt like we walked into a saloon in the middle of a JOHN WAYNE movie. Stranger in town.....
As much as I really love this town as it is extremely beautiful and clean and tidy town, It certainly needed a sprinkle of the Gok Wan magic to put it a little bit more on the map other than being ques for 50 mins outside Bettys Tea Room. x
haha so true! Best post I've ever read....FACT
