    The pictures are lovely!

    I've been to Lands End but not made in to John O'Groats yet.

    Other places I've been:
    Northern Ireland - we went on the ferry from Troon to Larne.
    Isle of Man - went on the ferry from Liverpool.
    Jersey- flew from Edinburgh and hired a car.

    It is always interesting to see where people have been - might get some ideas for holidays! :)

    I live in Grangemouth which is probably best known for its oil refinery so a very industrial part of Scotland.

    Have a great day everyone! :)
    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

    Very good Alfie!


    3for, We have gone past Grangemouth. We had a nice trip to Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway once and Blackness Castle before staying at Falkirk. Have been to Linlithgow a few times too. DS2 stays at South Queensferry now. Have you been to South Wales? We have been all over there on breaks and really enjoyed them all.

    Good morning all, very dull here and looks like its going to tip it down.

    When we lived in the Midlands used to go to Wales a lot and even Devon. Once went to the Isle of Mull with a trailer to deliver a contract Hire Car, didnt get to see much but would love to go again some time.

    Loving the pics everyone, thanks.

    Family coming for lunch again so busy busy. Sister coming next week Tues - Frid and then DS coming week after Mon - Thurs + DD2 and family at some point that week so all go for us.

    Have a wonderful Sunday peeps.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    Been to South Wales twice. Once in a small village outside of Tenby and the other time it was a hotel at Aberavon - this one http://bw-aberavonbeach.co.uk. It's right on the seafront and was lovely inside but had zero kerb appeal and the car park was full of potholes! We wondered what we had booked! This was about 7 years ago now. :)

    Saw the signs for Aberavon on last trip. Hotel looks nice, we use Best Westerns when they have offers on. Have usually stayed in caravans in South Wales and won two stays to Bluestone too. Did stay in hotel at Stepaside, 6 miles from Tenby a few years ago.




    You are going to be busy again Sylvia!
