No it didnt Keef,a few years ago we decided to explore the North,we have some lovely places in this Country and as we have got the dog,we hire a house and use that as a base to see things in that area.OK the weather is not all that good,but hey you can't have everything so in the last few years we have been to;
Oban with trips to Iona and Fingles Cave
Haltwhistle with trips to Durham and Lindisfarne
Garsdale on the Carlisle /Settle line
Alnmouth for Alnwick and Berwick and Beamish,and last year
Cromford in Derbyshire for visits to Matlock Crich tram museum and Chatsworth,this year we are going North again to Whitby.
Visits to Heartbeat Country ( why are they stopping do the TV programme) York etc.What a lovely country we live in
