Did you know that there are stepping stones across

Did you know that there are stepping stones across Skelton Beck in Saltburn?... Because up until recently I had absolutely no idea! 🤯😍

🚘 Parking: Marske Mill Lane, Saltburn-by-the-Sea, TS12 1HR

From here head down towards the Cleveland Way. You'll see the viaduct on the right, head left and follow the river along until you find the stepping stones. Easy! 🎉✨

ADPR 🎬 The Shawshank Redemption at @forumtheatrebi

ADPR 🎬 The Shawshank Redemption at @forumtheatrebillingham 🎬

Despite protests of his innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murders of his wife and her lover. Incarcerated in the notorious Shawshank facility, he quickly learns that no one can survive alone. Andy strikes up an unlikely friendship with the prison fixer Red, and things start to take a slight turn for the better. However, when Warden Stammas decides to bully Andy into subservience and exploit his talents for accountancy, a desperate plan is quietly hatched…

"Fear will hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free"

This thrilling stage production examines friendship and hope behind the claustrophobic bars of a maximum-security facility.

OMG these pancakes 😍🥞🍓 Do I actually need to say anything else?? 😂 @thecopperkettle_hartlepool nailing indulgent breakfasts AGAIN! 😍🤤

We've got sweet tooths (clearly), but the whole menu at The Copper Kettle is unreal! Everything looked super delicious coming out, and the portion sizes are VERY generous - We ended up bringing around half home with us. It was quite literally pancakes for breakfast, dinner and tea 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 A very good day! 😍
