Now then

Lookin at doin a round Britain trip this summer over nine days following this ruff route keeping off the motorways if and where possible. That will mainly depend on how we do each day for time:-

From Thirsk north to Perth via firth Of Forth road Bridge, John'O'Groats, Kilmarnock area via Fort Augustus & Fort William, Chester via Lake District, Cardiff via full length of Wales, Lands End via Severn Bridge, Gosport/Brighton area, Lowestoft/Great Yarmouth area, around the wash to Skegness then up the coast through Lincs over the Humber Bridge and back Home :D

Will be in August, haven't had our main holiday in this country for over ten years so fingers crossed for good weather 8)

Cheers

As Deigo says, if you need digs along the south coast give us a shout and it will be good to meet up if you're passing. 8)
