I hope so too. I didn't hear the count but every little helps. Paul Whitehead who runs the Bike friendly Castle Café runs these events and for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and RNLI over the year and is a Biker himself

Cool.

On another topic, does anyone know how well Liz Truss' first day at Microsoft went?

I was thinking the same. That castle structure is interesting.

I'm glad I no longer work in IT. I can just imagine the chaos behind the scenes.

We were told as kids that it was the entrance to a pier but that wasn't quite all the story,

https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/heri...rparts-2930293

I'm old enough to remember when there was a little train track from Hull where I live to Withernsea and one of the small stations was just around the corner from where we used to live. We would go quite often on a Sunday

https://withernsea1.co.uk/History.html

It's a funny little seaside resort. It's not got the fame up here like Hornsea/Bridlington/Scarborough and Whitby but has it's charm and presently Paul Whitehead, the Biker owner of the Castle Café, has but it on the Motorcycle map. I was there one Sunday morning and some lads had come across from Bradford just for some grub . I don't go to the Thursday nights often as it can get too busy for me and we have quite a lot bike nights now up this way
