Dear Fabbers ,Friends and Forumites.
What a busy , productive and all round swell day Pooch and I have had.
We have walked in the hills, feeling the spring sun on our skin , something that’s so reviving. Two wonderful wanders. The lambs gambolling in the fields.( I blame better connectivity to the internet, 4G and smart phones for sheep.) Always a sure sign that spring has arrived covering us with her pastel shaded cloak of rejuvenation.
We have begun the herculean task of clearing the garage, give me the Augean stables any day compared to my neglected garage. I think I have attended my local recycling center so much I expect a Christmas party invite.
Whilst on the Great Orme , Y Gogarth in Welsh. This early evening we gazed over to the mighty Carneddau Mountains, still slightly snow-capped. Along the length of the Menai straights , the sea glimmering in the last rays of a spring day. Then across to Yns Mon , Mam Mon. The island of Anglesey , considered by some to be the true home of the Welsh. The last part of our fair nation to be conquered by Gaius Suetonius Paulinus in 60 AD as chronicled by Tacitus.
Anglesey coincidentally was the birth place of William Jones the man who discovered the mathematical concept of Pi.
Pooch and I though Where else in the world would we rather be ?
So tonight Chums we are asking you .
Where in the world would you like to visit and why?
Taff & Pooch

It changes all the time, but at the moment I really want to visit the Isle of Barra in the Outer Hebrides. I want to fly in and land on the beautiful beach.
It just looks so gorgeous and I could happily spend a long weekend alone exploring  |

One day before it's too late I want to visit the Great Wall of China, and walk some of it over several days. Such history, and many untold stories connected to it. Magnificent feat of human will. |

There are parts of England I still want to visit as our country is beautiful. I also want to tour the western coast of the Scottish Highlands, and tour Ireland.
That's for starters, just need the sunshine to enjoy it all at its best. |

"In the uk....it would have to be Cornwall as it is a place I have never had the pleasure of visiting  "
Quite a change from devon, not so much tree line and lots of coastal cliffs in cornwall where pirates and boot leggers hid there spoils, when I was with my parents on one occasion where we stayed was on the coast and in the cliffs alongside was a blowhole (not that one haha) but one where the sea came in and blew the air through the top made a right sound I,ve been very lucky in my life to have parents that liked travelling along most of our coastline in the past and touring in general. |

"Cuba, now that we are allowed.
My fave country, after the US!
Its like a time warp. The country never moved on from the 50's and 60's. Its crazy."
I loved Cuba but it was 2005 when I went!! Would really love to go back!!!
I want to explore more of Scotland, especially the north & Isles.
Abroad - Greece because it's beautiful |

"I've been to many places, lots I would love to return to. But if I had unlimited funds it would be a trip up the length of the Pacific Coast Highway."
Good choice. Lucky enough to do that last year. Big Sur and Monterey are stunning. |

There and to the left a bit |
So many places it's difficult to pick just one, furthest east (from the UK) I've been is probably Cyprus...so there's a lot of unexplored places in that direction...top of the list though would be Australia, Japan and New Zealand
Going the other way..have only really done East Coast USA...so would love to see the West Coast and some of the major (and not so major) places in the middle. Canada would be high on the list too.
South America would also be fascinating I'm sure.
And that's before we even get to places in the UK I've not seen. |

One day I'd like to fly into New York , buy a cheap RV and spend some time exploring the US , visiting all the famous places / landmarks / cities that have fascinated me since I was a wide eyed child seeing these places on the TV or in books before making my way back to New York , selling the RV and returning home |

I read 'welsh', 'swell' and 'sheep' in the same post. 
I'd like to travel all over just to experience different cultures and see the different ways they do things.
I love historical shit so castles, ruins, historical type buildings would be great.
Oh and sluts, there would have to be sluts.

Too many places. I've not been out of the West mids since October 
Need to get a passport, funds, dogsitter, new clothes and all other stuff to go on many of the adventures I'd love to.
So...I shall stay planted in the west mids until retirement I fear! |

First and foremost I'd like to see mountain gorillas in their natural habitat - Uganda or Rwanda - though I probably wouldn't be able to see them through tears of awe and amazement I was actually there.

Cuba - music mainly
Prague - old world city..though now cluttered with stag/hen parties
Japan - mixture of the old/modern world
Tuscany - I loved Italy as a teen, didn't do this bit
Anglesey - while away an afternoon watching sun come down on Newborough beach, possibly my favourite beach ever!
After all my travels to return to my spiritual home in the Yorkshire Dales |
