Me and Rach just got back from a week trip around the UK's South coast and for only a week we packed in lots of stuff. So rather that make you read through a whole lot that ya don't want to know here's a short blow by blow of what we did.
First stop Cardiff, Stayed with Evan ad Sarah (I worked with Ev at FnP and Rach did running events with Sarah), walked around Cardiff city and out to their version of the AK viaduct, train ride out to carphilly castle and dinner at a pub, sampled the 'insane' Cardiff night life and watched Ev play cricket (cause sarah locked us out of the house).
Bath, Jamie arrives in bath and waits for Rach who had an unforeseen 'Delay/got stuck on the train', visit the old Roman baths, walk around the city then dinner and a comedy walk (he threw a rabbit into the river in a bag!!!).
Exeter, Stayed with Tracey (from uni days) and pretty much did the only thing Exeter has to offer the exeter cathedral, impressive none the less
Brockenhurst, Hung out with the locals (horses just wandering the streets), Big day bike ride in the forest, dinner of chips and wild blackberries.
Brighton, Brighton Pier and Brighton City, loads of second-handy/hippie/cool shops, local food festival, back to the pier and some bumper cars, Rachel’s birthday and a movie.
all topped of with a good patting down at Gatwick Airport
The embellished stories, with pictures will follow.
P.S. just got tickets to the AB's vs Scotty next week, woop woop!
