Halifax, England.

Halifax is a city of around 80,000, in the South Pennine area of west Yorkshire. The Travel Lodge is located in an old Mill building area, Dean Clough. Once the home of the worlds largest carpet manufacturer, Crossley Carpets, it’s now a thriving community which combines arts and culture, leisure facilities, restaurants, bars, cafes, shops, events spaces, offices and the hotel.

Whilst Sue heads off for a catchup with the Baigents, Blair has an afternoon snooze, as Covid takes hold.

The next day we are off to Liverpool. With some hot weather on the way, we are pleased our hotel, the Hilton, has air conditioning!
