I know this is a tad off the beaten path, but I am going to be in Britain (YAHOO!!) for two weeks around the end of April, 1989. We will be going the full length of England and Scotland, with a dip into Wales. We wish to integrate as best we can, and so intend to use B&Bs to a great extent. I would appreciate it very much if anyone in those respective locales could make specific recommendations as to B&Bs, inns, restaurants, etc., as well as walking tours (unescorted), etc. Any other hints would be welcome as well. I have lived in Europe twice for a total of about five years, so I know the basics (ugly American, etc.). Please reply by mail to HILLST::MASON if you can contribute, so that I can keep this "felineless" interruption to a minimum. Thanks a lot...Gary

Hi Gary- just wondering if you are planning to visit the Isle of Man? | |||||
2107.2 | Cats aren't REALLY specifically on the agenda... | HILLST::MASON | Explaining is not understanding | Mon Jan 02 1989 15:05 | 14 |
Unfortunately no. We were originally intending to spend most of the time in Scotland, but decided that as much as I think I'll like the whole island, we had better make it more widespread. On looking at the BTA book of the land (250 Tours...), we have selected what we think is a good sample for a first go, but we are hitting no islands (Man, Skye, Orkney, Wight, Shetland, Scilly, Hebrides, etc.). It is amazing how short two weeks seems when you start getting down to details. I am hoping that we can find an area or two that we really like, and concentrate on them the next time, including their "local" islands. Gary | |||||
2107.3 | This one's worth a try | MVSUPP::SYSTEM | Dave Carr 845-2317 | Thu Jan 05 1989 13:05 | 10 |
Gary, I recommend you try the Great_Britain notesfile for this query. You may also find some of the material in there useful/helpful. The conference is TRUCKS::GREAT_BRITAIN (or 45466::GREAT_BRITAIN if your system doesn't know the node). I hope you have a good visit! * DC (in the heart of Yorkshire) |
