7 Day UK tour - Part 3:We arrived in Blackpool in the evening on Tuesday and after checking into a classic old hotel, which reminded Nat of the hotel in The Shining, we headed into town as a group for some Chinese and then tenpin bowling, which was a great night. Creepy highlight of the night was returning to our hotel and peering into the venue room where music was playing, only to be spotted by the solo singer/entertaininer, who then called out to us to come...

After breakfast we slumped back to our room for most of the afternoon to recover from the epic night before, until about 4pm when we s...

7 Day UK tour - Part 2: Waking up in Wales on Monday we headed off fairly early and plunged through the middle of the Brecon Beacons national park, seeing some beautiful hilly scenery and thousands of happy looking sheep and goats munching on some of the greenest grass we've ever seen (guess all that rain is good for something!). After a brief walk to a 360 degree viewpoint and a few photos, we headed out of Wales and back into West England, where we made for St...
