Went to a meeting at The Rendezvous Hotel in Skipton this morning and who were getting all kitted up ready for a foodie motorbike trip in the Yorkshire Dales but Simon King and Dave Myers – better known as the Hairy Bikers, complete with wicker shopping baskets on the front of the motorbikes. I will try and find out what they are upto in this area….
It’s a new tv series on regional baking, filming at Skipton Castle…..

It was very good to see a vibrant farmers market full of fantastic produce and plenty of customers, some stalls were nearly sold out by 11am, nearly all the strawberries and green beans were gone.
We bought red and yellow cherry tomatoes, green beans, Single and Double Gloucester cheese from Godsells, Church Farm, Stonehouse and organic Cotswold Brie from Simon Weaver of Kirkham Farm, Upper Slaughter, Sun dried tomatoes, scotch eggs, Gloucester old spot pork sausages (for the kids), apple juice, steawberries and a bottle of English wine.
The excellent scotch eggs were from The Handmade Scotch Egg Company which come in a fantastic array of flavours, we tried BlackWatch with rich black pudding and free range pork a Mac which is an original scotch egg (free range pork and seasoning), a Passion which is a bit different with free range pork, beetroot and red onion and lastly a Baz which is free range welsh white/landrace cross pork with fresh basil, sun dried tomatoes and black olives, they were mmm scrumptious…
