Silent Night Neilio
Evening
I'm back home for just over 24 hours. Just time to repack for Manchester Party Capital Friday night.

Anyway, I have read 82 posts about mostly excellent things. The drawings are rather damn fine.

Rightio, off to the airport to collect Mrs and Miss Neilio who have been to Dublin for a couple of days.

Nice. I've been gifted the task of finding us a U.K. Holiday for end of august in a cottage ..... suggestions please

So far my personal top choice is Oban, or north Devon.

How about the Yorkshire Dales Doc? I can highly recommend Lune Valley.

I've had a very enjoyable evening with some Fetchies.

Orford, Suffolk is lovely - it's remote without being remote.

Jono.
Oban - great place to be based for the west coast of Scotland and they have a Tesco's now. (they've had one for ages, but not in the days when I used to call in on my fishery protection vessel)

whiskey distillery and nice tea rooms (next to the distillery) me and mrs j ate an entire chocolate cake in their once - mrs J was heavily pregnant with our Moll.
