As I said previously, my cousin Peter was staying with us for the weekend as he'd come to see the new house. We decided to go into Leeds on Saturday and we had been thinking about what we were going to do. So we booked to play crazy golf at the Junkyard in Leeds, and arranged the day around that.
We got to Leeds about midday and parked in the Light. It is so expensive there but we needed to be in the Light so we just sucked it up. We walked through to Tamatanga which is Indian street food and where I've been a few times. Lee suggested it as he'd really liked it, and Peter agreed. We just turned up but it did get busy so I'm glad we were there for opening and managed to get a table.
I had two cocktails as they were on special offer, I don't quite remember now what they were but they were nice. For food I had chaat, as always, and some onion bhajis, and I shared a chilli cheese naan bread with Peter. It was all delicious food and we all enjoyed it. We maybe over ordered a little bit though!
I was wearing my black Simply Be dress that has blue hearts on it, I love it but the sleeves really annoy me so I we them pushed up. I had also put on my other glasses that I got earlier in the year when they were on buy one get one ffree. They rub my left ear a bit so after a few hours I get fed up of them, but for a little bit they are cute. I must get them adjusted again because I really love the pattern on them.
We went up to the Junkyard at about 1.30 for our booking. There are three different golf courses, all themed but basically the same. You can play all three of them for £16.50 which isn't bad at all. I can't remember which was which, but we played one first then had a sit down and a drink, then went to another and then did the same, and then I noped out about halfway through the third one because I was really aching and needed to sit down. They were fun to play, with a few different types of holes, but on the Saturday afternoon they were just so busy that we ended up waiting behind big groups for ages which was a bit annoying. Staff told us to skip forward which did help a bit, but not entirely. I'm not sure I would bother to go again but it was a fun time and we enjoyed it. We took some photos in the photobooth as I do love a photobooth and in my new craft room I've
After we had finished there we went to La Dolce for pudding. I think that was Lee's suggestion too. He and I went on my 40th birthday in January 2024, for brunch. There are so many things to choose from but I went for a crepe with chocolate and bananas. When we'd finished - absolutely stuffed full - we left Leeds and went to my mum's in Wakefield so she and my stepdad could see Peter for a bit. We didn't stay there long. My mum had made this meaty thing for their tea and gave Peter some to take home haha as there was loads.
We got home and just chilled out for the rest of the night, watching a couple of films and just talkimg.
On Sunday morning Lee went off to band practice so Peter and I did some jobs in the house. He helped me to sort out the garage a bit more. I thought we had way more boxes still to unpack but seeingthe garage reassured me that we didn't. We actually unpacked the last box a couple of days later! Amazing to be honest as it wasn't fun but it got done. When Lee got back Peter helped him with some stuff in the loft (I haven't been in it as I don't think I could do it safely, but I have stuck my head through as the ladder is okay for me to access). That really helped us too! Lee made some kind of roasted food for lunch before Peter left about 4pm! It was a lovely weekend with him.
