DAY OUT.

I would go to visit Highgrove, Prince Charles’ gardens. This was the year I was really going to get booked and go.

DH and I visited Portmerion many years ago. I found it very pretty and quirky but also slightly unnerving. Like a person who remains smiling inappropriately.

A picture came up in my Facebook Memories from last year's Easter Sunday trip to Portobello . It was a very warm sunshiney day and we all paddled except DGD who stripped to her underwear and swam. Seeing this picture made me yearn even more to go to the sea. I really need to check that it is still there and going in and out as usual. Perhaps GNs who live at the coast can reassure me?

Me too Beechnut hopefully we will get to La Rochelle and Ile de Re at some point, can't wait.

Loved our visit to Portmeirion it really is quirky but so recognisable from The Prisoner. I’ll make my mission to go again but it would be sadly without my lovely DH this time.

I only saw the last two minutes and was left feeling must go when things are normal. Even the two minutes left me with a happier feeling than i have had in a while!

Portmeirion was somewhere I always wanted to visit so we visited while in the area about ten years ago.

Marydoll - Oh that was a thoughtful treat for your DH and It’s good to hear how much you enjoyed it. You’ve given me an idea to drop hints for my 70th - I would love it. Take care.

I would like a walk on a sandy beach with the waves lapping my toes and warm sunshine on my back.

We stayed there as part of DH's 60 the birthday surprise years ago. He was fan of the Prisoner, so I booked a cottage.
We loved it and the food in the restaurant was delicious.
I would go. back in a heartbeat.
We are keen to return to see more of Wales, but I don't envisage that happening now.

portmeirion gets absolutely packed, heaving and it is very twee. One visit in a lifetime was enough

It was a very hot day the last time I was there , part of a bus tour . It is very pretty but so busy that it was hard to get to see it all
I would love to visit on a quiet day

I love Portmerion but its ages since we went. Must go again soon.
