North Yorkshire Minis - Mini Run

We have been invited by the North Yorkshire Minis to join them on there very tasty mini run (organisers of M&C and Mucky Ducks) so it is ............... sounds like a great run so lets join in with the

An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world.
So, he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Orlando, thinking that he would start by working his way across the USA from South to North.
On his first day, he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '$10,000 per call'.
The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.
The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God.
The American thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Atlanta. There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same sign under it.
He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.
She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.
'O.K., thank you,' said the American.
He then travelled all across America, Europe, England, Japan, and New Zealand.
In every church he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same '$US10, 000 per call' sign under it.
The American decided to travel to York to see if Yorkshire folk had the same phone.
He arrived at Leeds Train Station, and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same looking golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '40 Pence per call.'
The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. 'Father, I've travelled all over the world and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in all of them price was $10,000 per call.
Why is it so cheap here?'
The priest smiled and answered, 'you're in Yorkshire now, son - "This is Heaven," so it's a local call’.

The point of this post is to announce a run starting from Thirsk around the top end of North Yorkshire including a stop off for a carvery lunch (with Yorkshire Puddings of course) on Yorkshire day, Sunday the 1st of August.
Flat caps obligatory, whippets optional
Anyone fancy it??
