Best cuppa in the world

Hi Guy's & Gal's

Is it true that the Hartside cafe does the best cup of tea in the world?

I do,

With my own Teabags, kettle and pot, nobody makes tea for you, like you do.

If you do not make your self the best cup of tea in the world, have a word with your self.

After you've spent the previous hour and a half (or thereabouts) climbing Hartside, the cafe is the most welcome sight you could ask for. The tea is proper good cafe tea, and the food is spot on. Plus if you're there on a Sunday, there'll be some utterly gorgeous machinery outside...

I'm gonna be on top of Hartside on Sunday 28th June, Hopefully get up there before the sun zaps any energy that i should have. That cafe is gonna be a welcome sight.

I'll be the one on the floor coughing my gut's up.

Sun?! What sun?

You're more likely to be exhausted from battling against the wind and scared s**tless from trying to dodge kamikaze bikers...

Yup.

Rob thinks I suck at driving because I *cough* "clipped" an apex on Hartside.

I think he sucks at driving because he took us on a magical mystery tour involving a small tree, an eight foot ditch, two terrified horses and an inquisitive farmer.

The truth is, neither of us is as good as we think we are...
