DAY OUT.

I would travel 100 miles to Worcester to see my granddaughter born on 27th March and her brother aged 4.

I was assuming that I'd be allowed another day out to see the family!

How exciting to have a new addition to the family, Patsytaylor and I hope you get to meet her and to see them all soon.

Yes of course Callistemon. In this fantasy weekend the first day would be family meet-ups and hugs, and the second day for a trip out of your choice ?

Went to Portmeiron years ago with DH and DD. The place was nice and interesting, but I had a salad with bugs in it at the cafe, and some horrible sweaty cheese!

We were in Portmeirion last year, an enjoyable trip down memory lane for us. First visited about 52 years ago, half a dozen times over the years. If I could go anywhere it would be Caldey Island, it always gives me a sense of peace.

Congratulations patsytaylor, hope the photos and video calls are coming thick and fast, not the same I know but always lovely to see.

We’re due to go on a Great Rail Journey holiday to Wales in September which includes a trip to Portmeiron. Was looking forward to it. Don’t know now if it is going ahead..

We went to Portmerion a good number of years ago. Upon entering the centre of the village we discovered Cold Feet being filmed for television. A few of us were stood talking on the veranda at the far end of the water feature. As I was wearing a red blouse we were easily spotted when the episode was on television. We watched The Village last night which brought memories back of the tea shop where we enjoyed a cuppa and a lovely fresh scone.

Perth. I have some lovely memories from there and the surrounding area. My husband remembers it because I actually allowed him to take closer up photographs with me in them.

Keswick, then Keswick again! We are booked to go in July but probably not going to happen but we will be up there for the day as soon as we can.

I would go 150 miles to see my sister who is in a care home. The last time I saw her was the last day before lockdown and then only for 10 minutes in the hospital. She was very poorly then and I thought it might be the last time I saw her then.

Anywhere on the coast. I haven’t seen the sea for six years.

It's a beautiful place. Xx

Loved it many many years ago. Like all interesting places nowadays would probably be mobbed. If I did manage another visit it would definitely have to be off season.

We went a couple of years ago for my partners 50th. It was September so nice and quiet
We stayed in the domed house and it was lovely. Food was excellent and we also went on a train journey and popped into Caernarfon which is my parents home town. I looked at going for New Year’s Eve but it was extortionate sadly

I’d take my 3 yr old grandson and his 7 month old sister to the seaside to build sandcastles and paddle in the sea.

York. Love that City. Meet daughter and trawl the intriguing independent shops in the alleyways plus all the green spaces.
I would need at least the whole weekend and then some. ??

I would go grab my family & go to Wroxham, hire a day boat & just wander the Broads for a day. It is one of my favourite places & have had many happy holidays on the Broads over the years.

Cheltenham. We go twice a year. Love the town and the shops and everything about it. Top of my list.

Somewhere on the coast. I love the sea and, if the weather was suitable, I'd have a swim.

Last week we should have been in Llandudno, which we love, we have rebooked for October hoping we will be able to go then. We have friends there and a visit to Bodnant Gardens would be must, and a trip up the Great Orme, so much to do and see, even the town itself. Fingers crossed we will be able to go in October.

Not next weekend but in June on the 50th anniversary of when my husband first asked me out, I'd like to go to Weymouth. We had booked a weekend away in a hotel there to mark the occasion, as that is where we went with a friends for the day and 'linked up' for the first time. Unlikely to happen now sadly.
This picture was taken that day in 1970 in front of Portland Bill lighthouse, I'm the girl on the right.

I liked Portmerion but agree it was a bit busy.
I would like a day out on my favourite beach on Rhodes. No chance of getting there this year. Next year hopefully!
Luckily as weather has been great I do have a super tan already!!

Beechnut, I'm with you on this one!

I live in Hebden Bridge and it is indeed a lovely place.
