    Thanks for that Joe, I hadn't heard of it before but it sounds fantastic. The place I would recommend is also the Falkirk Wheel and the Atherton Boat Lift, but maybe not that interesting for the ladies. hahahaha

    If like my Wife and her friends in their 20's who have come over they want to see Film locations from Notting Hill and whatever rather than places of outstanding beauty.

    For example took a picture of the Wife by a door in westminster Bridge on the side by the old GLC building (near the London Eye) At first the wife didn't click and i said pretend to open the door etc. Of course its the door from one of the recent bond movies which seems to be on star movies 24/7 so all her friends and family once told via the comments in the FB album and seemed to make more comments about this apart from the search for the blue door in poterbello road from Notting hill.
    From experience young pinays although can appreciate the beauty of old buildings and fountains are not that interested until you mention it appeared in Bridget Jones or whatever..
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    My first week is so busy here ...hubby took me and daughter to tesco,asda,morrissons,m&s,outlet village,matalan,t.k.maxx,even b&q ,non stop shopping and bargain hunting for warm clothes boots and my fave (shoes,trainers etc)

    2nd week was nice we went down :

    Hackpen Hill where the Wootton Bassett to Marlborough road zigzags up the hill
    Amesbury town and civil parish in Wiltshire, England. It is most famous for the prehistoric monument of Stonehenge which is in its parish, and for the discovery of the Amesbury Archer – dubbed the King of Stonehenge in the press – in 2002.
    Portland Bill Lighthouse and Chesil beach

    before the week ends i also get the chance to visit their local hospital lol....
