Saurer Pfirsich Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Central London - so much energy, history and sense of vitality in one place. Many great memories from working there for 10 years pre-Australia. Kent coast - Whitstable, Broadstairs, Herne Bay - beautiful pebble beaches, perfect for dog-walking and sneaking in a quiet pint on a Sunday afternoon! Gower Peninsula - dramatic, rugged views. Awesome. That's 3, could have listed many more though. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simmo Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 sooooo many to choose from. For the scenery: Cotswolds, Lake district, devon/cornwall. Beaches: Cornwall and devon. Quirky seaside towns: Brighton, Whitstable. Historic: Canterbury, Rochester, Rye, York. London: the canals, the little hidden pubs off the tourist trail, the architecture, the bridges, the parks, the stately homes, the pomp and ceremony, the london villages, the community spirit, the authenticity........ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the last time I was there! That was 13 years ago nearly now though. Used to take my son there every week on my day off in the summer. Have some great pictures of him jumping around in the sea there. Great sand for sandcastle building. Happy days. ? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
