anyone fancy a drive up the strines one night for a drink.its only a small pub but a brilliant drive up if you like twisty roads.test your brakes and steering[and driving!]if youve been before you,ll know what i mean.we could meet off the m1 if you dont know the way,think its junction 34a.how about it?

Thats where me n Mrs Essfourteen used to go 'courting'.

There are some fantastic roads from there back up to Barnsley via Stocksbridge and Penistone.. but watch out for sheep and the unforgiving dry-stone walls

J34.. is that so you can go shopping at the meadowhall?

What about us northeners, J36 is best - Tankersley Manor Pub or Mcdonalds on the roundabout.. it will be a lot quieter than J34 as well.

Then you can take the soft porn route down the Middlewood Road to Hillsboro and then the Rivelin Valley road out onto the A57..

..or you can take the hard core route via Wightwizzle and High Bradfield.

Let me know when you have made your mind up please.. and lets stick to it this time :-x
