Odds and Ends

In the spirit of “What’s different here?”, a few little odds and ends from our time in the U.K.

 

• Dogs in Restaurants: Kind of charming until one yips loudly in your ear.

 

• Dog Ice Cream: Huh?

 

• Choices for tips— 10%/ 12% / 15%. Yeah! 

 

• Pickles:  A kind of chutney used in cheese-pickle sandwiches.

 

• Flapjacks: Not pancakes, but a cross between a granola bar and an oat bar.

 

• Beck, Scar, Dale, Moor: A stream, a rocky outcropping, a valley, an open hillside with few (if any) trees.

 

Today, our fourth day of hiking, we’ll be walking through them all.
