Had a reminiscing morning. Pat took us touring through Solihull, Knowle and Dorridge and we ended up sitting and watching the local A grade cricket at Moseley. Ian was really impressed with the setup and his day was made when a genuine WWII ... Read more >

Started the day with a visit to Shrewsbury Abbey. An interesting building built in three stages, with the new part being completed in the 1830s. Very helpful town. Could not walk anywhere with a map without someone offering help. Quite amazing.... Read more >

Decided to try for the Snowdon cog railway. We found they had put on an extra train as the weather was so good (21??) but we had a four hour wait. So we drove into Conway and explored the castle there, built 13th century and still lots of ... Read more >

Sunshine saw us out of York and the rest of the day followed suite (mainly) but no rain! Drove to Llangollen - two and a bit hours and we are across the country. The roads are mad - so much traffic all travelling at 70mph - yes they still operate ... Read more >

First day of consistent rain. Can't complain about those odds! So we had an inside day. Started with York Minster. It is quite brilliant as they have recently dug out the Roman ruins underneath and made it into an interactive display.... Read more >

Headed off from Edinburgh trying to conquer the quirkiness of our Citroen hire car. It has some 'special' features which I am not sure we will figure out. Drove to Ravenglass in the Lakes District through rain but got there in the dry. Staying at Muncaster ... Read more >

Happy birthday Sophie. Started the day by climbing up to Arthur's seat. The climb was good, the view was excellent but the wind incredible. Literally you could be blown over. Then back to town where we explored the castle and under the city ... Read more >

When I decided to start blogging our travels I had such grand intentions of regular contributions. Alas, here we are, months later yet again.
