Your favourite places in England.

Yeah, that's funny Rob, I can just imagine the scene, the music, the smoke from the guns and three wild, wild women after me! Phoarrrh!! Lol

By the way could you let me have the 'exact' location of that Priest-hole please?

Patrick and Stephanie - you can purchase the Wainwright Coast to Coast DVD on EBAY. It runs from 27 dollars to 33 dollars, but is well worth it as you can't seem to find it anywhere else. Good luck.

The power of POE yet again! Thanks Judy for the information to Patrick.

Michael also writes above>>>(Watch out for Ron though! Lol we haven't seen a Yeti yet!)

Did I ever tell you about the Oxford Yeti Tours? A hair raising tour (can't be me can it?) throughout the Oxford wildback! Lol

My favourite place,

Is the Lakes, used to live not far from there, still go back every year with a photo friends, its a place you never get fed up with,

Saw Wainwright on Tv not so long ago walking around the Lakes and giving information about it 

also to equal that will be my home town of Derbyshire, love the Peaks the Hills everything about it, so much to offer, been here all my life except for 20 years and still not bored  

I must add a comment here.  I am not Australian, I am an American who truly believes i was born in the wrong place.  I do love the US, don't get me wrong.  But I have had such a strong pull to the UK since i was a little girl, it's a bit otherworldly.

My favorite place is the same as yours ... Yorkshire, and York in particular.  Many years ago, my pen pal had mapped out a long holiday for us.  But when we got to York and the Minster - not to mention Haworth's moors - i said, "This is where we stop."  It just took my breath away.  

Of course, London for it's excitement, the Lakes and Dales for their natural beauty, and the Cotswolds for it's heartwarming architecture are not bad either!

Same here Evey.I also have some peculiar "pull" for England ever since I was a child.I think my husband and son have nightmares about me ditching them in favour of England some day! I think even God took pity on me and the first country I got a chance to visit outside India was England!

As it was not strictly a holiday (my husband was attending a training prog. in London) we did not get to see much outside London.We took a few day trips outside London during the weekends.I loved London and also liked Oxford,Bath,Stratford-upon-Avon although I would like to see these places a little more in detail some day.Scotland was also hauntingly beautiful.After seeing pictures of the Lake District and Yorkshire on POE  I would like to visit these places too.
