I would have chosen to go to one in the U.K, from memory I went to Sheffield, the Steel town, that year.
We stayed at the Railway Hotel, and that was a journey back in time to when Victoria was on the Throne !
All the furniture and fittings, even in the Bathrooms, and even the uniforms of waitresses and maids, all were still Victorian in design, I think this was not a marketing ploy, just that they had never updated !
They should have kept it like that.
Of course I cannot remember a single thing about the talks at the Assembly.
