Last year my fiance and I travelled to Weston-Super Mare.... I feel like we weren't there long enough..we only saw the beach... But I have a feeling the town would be great!!! Anyone have any ideas about this spot...what to do..or stay?

I suppose it was all down to expectations, I had an image in my head of what it would be like and it just didn't come close...although I did enjoy watching the idiot fathers getting soaked because they were showing their kids how close to the edge they could go.

Definately go and see it for yourself though.  And if you're there, then make sure you go to the rope bridge too (that was a nice surprise).

Cornwall.... so far!
Just a six hour train ride from London down to Penzance--worth it if you're going to stay at least several days, which you easily could do!

I thought Cornwall was gorgeous. I think all the areas of England I have seen are lovely, it's always nice and green when I've been there. Such a contrast to here during the colder months. I guess I don't have one favorite place, I'm just happy when I am near my favorite man in the world.  ;) ;D

I can't change the direction of the wind, I can however adjust my sails to always make it to my destination.

Shetland, hands down!  The scenery, the wildlife, the archeological sites, the people...  :)
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.
