  Hehe ok Frazzled, I have a very very loose general idea of what I want to see.

  London, Bath, Glastonbury, Stonehenge, Stratford, Cornwall, The Cotswolds, York, Edinburgh, Inverness, Belfast, Dublin, Dingle Peninsula.

  I'm also wondering about distances, if I want to see......Inverness and Glasgow, how much time would I lose if I stayed in Edinburgh and did day trips. Would it be reasonable to stay in Winchester and day trip to London, Cornwall, Bath, etc.

  I do have until June of next year to plan..........

  Simon, I want to see everything, but obviously that's not going to happen. So I'm interested in what people who live there think are must sees. I'm reading a variety of travel books and of course I have had several spots on my personal list for years. Love history.

  Cant, that looks beautiful and just my sort of thing. Yes I've heard the area is famous for it's enlightened exJWs.

  Pterist I am looking forward to Irish Guinness! Cliffs of Moher, beautiful.

  I check every couple of days or so- looking for an intelligent- or at least a SEMI-intelligent topic- and usually find none...buncha whiny Losers, it appears...

  I assume that's sarcasm with 112 posts in less than two months

  Well I have been an Anglophile since I could read, and a lover of the Scots since I read Nigel Tranter years ago and many others since. In the modern world, I can't even imagine the idea of "secession". It seems a bit romantic.

  Not to mention, that I am FINALLY going to the UK next year, and wondering about what might change re money, rail/transport, etc.
