Title: Slaithwaite and Marsden
Post by: Graeme on 30 December, 2023, 06:43:35 pm
As the self proclaimed marketing board of Slaithwaite and Marsden, I felt it important to tell the world how good it is to cycle here. Not so much a "ride report" as an invitation.

There's a lot more about cafés in this than there seems to be about cycling.

Ha!  I will get onto those this afternoon.  I once won an orange at school for the speediest recitation of the first twenty or so books of The Bible.  I shall now forever modify the beginning to Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Broccoli ....!  Then it's Deuteronomy, Joshua Judges Ruth.  Joshua Judges Ruth?  Why, what had she done?  But such musing gets you no oranges!

Lol. She's spent the last three years working on this and we're just publishing them now. She has ME/CFS and doesn't think she has a ministry any more. I say different.

My current favourite meme:
God sent his son to save sinners.
It's unlikely he sent you to condemn then!
