Elaine and Francesca headed up country to York yesterday, to partake of the Romantic Novelists’ Association afternoon tea. Here are just a few photos of their day.

The shortest road in York with the biggest name – sounds like it’s straight out of an erotic novel, or a Carry On film!

Entrance to the Guild Hall, where the tea was held. The original 15th structure was a partly rebuilt after significant damage in World War II.
A big thank you to Lynda Stacey and Jane Lovering for organising this great occasion.
I loved having a glimpse of your day, Francesca and Elaine. Sadly, I’m in Portugal and couldn’t make it.
What a shame, Liz, though trust you’re having a good holiday. Hopefully if there’s another in York you’ll be able to make it.

Looks like you had a really good time. York is a lovely city.
It certainly is, Chrissie. Hadn’t been for a while so it was nice to have the opportunity.
Francesca
Lovely pictures of a lovely city. My daughter went to university there, and I have very good friends who live near the city. I’ve been visiting for over thirty years.
A nice place to visit her, Angela, unlike where Carmela was in Nottingham! I’m sure York is a place one could never tire of.
Francesca
It was a fabulous event and a great start to what we hope will be many Romantic Novelists’ Association tours around the country.
The RNA on tour – sounds good to me!
Francesca
A lovely pictorial memory. I didn’t get a photo of the window in the Guildhall so lovely to see it again here
It was a stunning setting, wasn’t it. Hope we can return again one day.
