For one minute I thought you meant Derby was a place to visit :eek: Derby always looks at it's best from a window of an Intercity 125 when it flys through the station without stopping

Derby is a great place to visit: Lovely historic buildings and quirky individual shops/restaurants around the Cathedral Quarter, loads of great Art Deco architecture, the Peak District right on the doorstep....OK the town planners may have made a bit of a hash of the Westfield Centre and Riverlights project (still nowhere near completion:hence no bus station, plus ongoing traffic chaos) but it's a great destination for a mini break.:D

Best: Maldives, Sri Lanka, Thailand

Worst: Florida, Vienna, Chicago (relatively speaking - I have not been anywhere on hoilday I really disliked)

I think I would go back to anywhere that scored over 40 and would recommend anywhere with 50+ points.

Best-Nile Cruise, but an adult only holiday and not suitable for youngsters. Make sure you have all the trips included in the price

Worst-Bulgaria about 6 years ago. We booked a hotel allocated on arrival for 2 adults and 3 youngsters. Got into an ex-Communist concrete complex which was awful on the Black Sea. We were all ill and the rooms were horrible!!!

Best- Clearwater beach, FL (first and last time I have felt truly free and without any worries- but the delicious stone crabs helped too)


Worst- Not been anywhere really bad but I suppose Lands End. Rained and there wasn't much to do.

Beenie

Best: Moorea (Tahiti)
Worst: Tunisia (and I've been to some grim places!)
