Places to take your Filipina Wife after she gets here in UK

[James Hubbard]

Ok before i say anything, disclaimer, we are including Filipino guys for the British ladies who are with them ...


that aside


I want to create a list of places to take the Missus when she gets here and I know it will help others

so


here's my initial



( 1) That LONDON place

( 2 ) Blackpool

( 3) Alton Towers

( 4) Birmingham's Balti Triangle

(5) Snowdonia

( 6 ) The Lake district

( 7 ) Glasgow and Edinburgh

( 8 ) Northern Ireland tour of Belfast and it's murals
. . .

any other suggestions??

Only in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - as a separate visa is required for southern Ireland - as much as I love dublin


Cheers

James.

How nice of you James! I like "( 1) That LONDON place" you've mentioned. but no hope if with hubby as he doesn't like city anymore.

Why not add the Stonehenge if she likes historical places. How about Durham Cathedral and Angel of the North.

Wasn't the cheese rolling banned this year, health and safety or something?

[Sim11UK]

Yeah! but they had an unofficial one anyway

Think it's back on again next year?

I think the countryside of England is very lovely. Devon, Dartmoor in particular and the farmlands that looked like quilt, the coasts (jurassic coast is very lovely), Bath and other Roman places, like Silchester which has the ruins of a Roman Town and the Roman amphitheater, White horse hill, English heritage places like Stonehenge, Woodhenge and Castles....

So true now people seem to be obsessed with firing of a million photos to created yet another album on facebook

Sometimes you say oh i see you went to so and so (due to the 400+ pictures in multiple albums you been tagged to) how long were you there oh just a few hours

[jam07]

and while in London, watch a London Symphony Orchestra concert/performance

... spoilt for choice with that "little" lot, for starters ...

any other suggestions??

... also ... how about beautiful and scenic Perthshire? It's set right in the 'Heart of Scotland' ... and easily accessible by road or rail from most parts of the UK. Only REAL problem is the weather!

[mikey73]

when in scotland dont forget inverness and loch ness (its 6 miles from inverness) and along the moray firth you can watch dolphin's playing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9eINfk0gu4 they can be as close as 20 feet from you. the rest of the highlands and the isle of skye is regarded as one of the most beautiful places in the uk

[James Hubbard]

Thanks everyone for your responses so far! I am gonna add them to my list

[Northerner]

I have been thinking about this same scenario all week

I think the main thing first of all with my Mahal is my home city and everything I an think of doing together. Theatre, comedy club, bars, places to eat.. Just getting around and experiencing the culture.

after that, it would be the wider UK and even places I want to visit myself.. I have yet o visit cornwall! Edinburgh! laces that I want to visit but would rather visit with someone, these are the places I will go... As well as the odd trip to blackpool and Alton Towers

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
