Thats me finally home after a wee country treck in the Luxobarge.
A gnats chuff short of 1900 miles since a week past Monday, calling at Carlisle, Fulham, WIM, Fulham, Newent, Tintagel, Devon & Cornwall and latterly, York due to some really groggy mist/fog on the SW coast.
Quite enjoyable, although the other half was disappointed at D&C. She was expecting a 'chocolate box' type village scenario but all she got was the Normany-esque 'Bocage' hedgerows - http://www.dday-overlord.com/eng/bocage_war.htm
Liked York/Harrogate though. Nice wee corner of the world.
Anything happening on here? no scandal or insurrection?N

In that case, mon ami, we have travelled different paths over our respective years and have differing levels of what we call enjoyable/worthwhile.
To me, if its clagged in, damp, and with no views due to high hedgerows then I would rather be elsewhere. So we did! But each to their own.... :y

Main thing is every one misses out the nicer areas. They head to Newquay or some other mad tourist areas.
Really nice bits are St Ives, the various Rias are nice, the gardens are outstanding, there are some fantastic beaches hidden away, and the fishing villages usually are lovely.
