ANYONE INTERESTED IN THE NEXT MEET UP CONTACT ME...

But you would pack up and leave it all if moving to Spain was a financial option?

Pretty much sums up the place.

However, the South West coastline is lovely and there are some great places to visit too. That's why I haven't moved since coming here!

I've only spent a day in Bristol, and it wasn't overly pleasant.

Having spent some time in Bristol, i can confirm that no-one would want to go there.

I'll go if I get to meet the great Hedfix...

You always have a laugh in there because the ceiling is low and uneven and people are always headbutting it :D

Sounds like fun Smedlos. =)

Yes I've been going since the 80ies. My parents have a timeshare there. Not sure how many years we have left.

Ah yes, but TC don't actually pay me enough for me to actually take advantage of the staff discounts...

Plus my paretns always used to take me to Devon when I was a kid...so, fond memories and all that.

We can go round Nottingham Castle and pop in the Trip To Jerusalem for a few crafty pints (it's the pub dug into the rock under the castle where Robin Hood & his merry men supposedly drank) and then go and have a medieval banquet :)

Bah!

I'll pop down the beach and watch the waves gently lap against the sand, then...
