Where is everybody going..................

Anne's going to Buxton, Jathbee's going to Keswick, Billinge B's going to his abode on wheels, Tonker's going to Spain, Plummy will no doubt be off on his bike all over the north west (not all at the same time). Where is everyone going?

Tenerife in November then Llandudno in December to my brother he lives in Craig-Y- Don

I'm going to Glasgow on Saturday night, staying over then, Picking my Son and family up at the airport and bringing him here, Then its trips and tours all over the UK until me wallet's empty, ( that won't take long ) Then the credit card gets a bashing, I filled the car up today before they put it up again,
Happy times,

Plummy: Ever so good luck. They've been blocking the fuel sites in Scotland, so keep filling up. Is he flying in to Glasgow? Enjoy it, life is extremely short.

nj: Is Craig-y-don the name of his house or a village?

^^^^^^^^

Sounds a good plan Tom. Hope you all have a great time. I'm going nowheer. Skint.

Platty Craig-Y-Don is the village/town and his house is named The Gallery as he's an Artist[....johnbenthamart

We are going to our gate and window view

Nanajacquie

John Bentham - also known as "Whiskers" by his old crown green bowling mates in Pemberton.

Yes he's the one bill he used to live in Highfield

Round in circles

You can't beat Llandudno for a short break. MUCH BETTER than Blackpool. Thank goodness the bay hasn't got a sandy beach otherwise it would be inundated.. In saying that the other side of Landudno on the River Dee, does have a nice sandy beach with plenty of cockles<g> Just been watching a 3 part programme about Llandudno Pier. Got me yearning for a short break there

Some good short breaks in the UK if you go looking.

Going to Newquay in Wales in September. And hoping to make it to Benidorm in September too. It will be a first for me, never really fancied it but friends can be very persuasive. And hopefully a few day trips in between.
Good thread Platty.

I won't have time to travel as we have four sets of visitors from the UK between July and September. A queue thanks to Covid. Hopefully a bit of pampering in Mexico before Xmas. then back to the Reef in February and the cycle starts again.

Platty i've filled up at Sainsburys, that will get me there, back and a quarter tank still there when i get home, I have a focus ecomatic, 70 MPG motorway cruising ,So I won't need to buy any juice off the Jocks,

Plummy: good luck, have a safe trip.

Broady: First Mate is psychic, he foresaw your post!

Jathbee: Benidorm - is that where that 80 year old pensioner got murdered yesterday?

Platty sorry for being pandemic but, your spelling is abysmal, you put,

Broady: First Mate is psychic, he foresaw your post!

it should be , First Mate is Septic

No idea about an 80 year old being murdered in Benidorm ,Platty, but I'll take my chances

Tom, Do you really get 70MPG, motorway cruising?

Lytham St-Anne's us, next one booked for July should be able to find something for June

Tom, Do you really get 70MPG, motorway cruising?

yes, done that trip to Glasgow many times and that's what I get and, because of the cars eco status, Its free road tax to boot,

Tom if you are going to ignore me stop making your snide remarks.

We're goin' to the zoo, zoo, zoo,
How about you, you, you,
You can come too, too, too,
We're goin' to the zoo, zoo, zoo!

Where was it we used to “ Love to go a-wandering” ?

Tonks: Are you going to organise an outing for WW to Chester Zoo?

For his birthday I bought my grandson a subscription to Chester Zoo. It's what he asked for, he's 7. He sponsors the 2 toed sloth and, besides lots of other stuff, he's got his name on the plaque for a year on their housing. He's very happy.

Have the WOKE MOB not decided Zoos are on the naughty list yet?

Just waiting, broady, just waiting.

We were off to morocco for 3 days and then to visit my sister in Spain for 4 days but just found out my wife still a need a visa and that will mean she will have to give her passport in for 3 week!! But she is off next week to the US for work..... so we are going to fly into barcelona on the 23 and take the week driving around up to
Girona over the border in to France then back

Sounds good, Peter. Enjoy

I'm off to Haworth in 2 weeks for the 1940s weekend cant wait then off to the Algarve in July

Back from the van... marvellous weekend... watched the warriors do the saints... even better.. Booked Bangor N. I. for our Pearl wedding in August... A week in a cottage... there and back on the motorbike from Liverpool to Belfast. looking forward to it.

Bangor is a lovely place. Worked in Belfast in 1996 and 1998 and really enjoyed touring N.Ireland. Lots to see.

The Bangor Hammer!

I'm thinking about going to the 15 in Pem, instead of the mount.

Not sayin on 'ere.......tha never knows who's readin this....Ah don't fancy anybody knowin when mi place is empty....

Agree frecky.A friend of my daughters had it all over Facebook and came back to a find her house had been broken into.

I'm gooin 'Rucking'.

May have to buy a new Bergan.

Ain't cheap nowadays, are they.

No problem about saying where you are going, it's saying when that's the issue..

My trip to Keswick was very enjoyable. A lovely little place. We found a very nice, eat in chippy, which served alcohol. The fish and chips were lovely, the wine not so It was called The Keswickian Just in case anyone visits there.

jathbee: I was in Keswick last year, I felt, as in most of the Lake District now, that the place had declined somewhat. I remember being there years ago over a Christmas week, it was freezing, but it was almost magical.
Kendal is another place, but walking in the surrounds of Kendal, the two castles, the river, is quite nice.
Keswick has a superb bookshop.

Just booked a couple of nights in Waterton which is around three hours south. If you sail on the Lake you cross the border with the USA. Famous for having the Prince of Wales Hotel. A very nice place.

It was a first time in Keswick for me Platty, so no idea what it was like a few years ago, so maybe you're right.

Enjoy your stay, Broady

Off to Porto Christo on Majorca next month…then Mijas Pueblo in September then winter in La Cala de Mijas (January/February)

That’s the way to do it Roylew.

Enjoy every moment roylew.
