Dartmoor/Exmoor - the wilderness appeals.
Scilly Isles by ferry from Penzance - hoping Scilly Red will put out an "all are welcome to stay" invite.
Bodmin Moor - a leisurely walk concluding in a few jars in the famous Jamaica Inn
Kyle of Lochalsh railway from Scottish west coast over to Dingwall.
Northern Ireland - Despite one my best mates being from Belfast, he moved over here and hardly ever went back himself and kept making excuses so it never happened which is a shame. Would like to meander hither and thither across the Peace Line and get tanked up in rough pubs on both sides of the religious divide.
Go to Rannoch Moor and recreate this scene from Trainspotting -
Wimbledon Tennis - And shout lewd comments at some fit Slav.
Appleby Horse Fair - check out how disreputable those Tinkers really are.
That's enough to kick off.....

Good call. Been meaning to do that for years. They still do an unofficial event..

Lincolnshire...been to just about every other bit of the UK, generally if not specifically, but for some reason never been there. Have meant to go to one of the away games, but something has always stopped it. The cathedral in Lincoln would be a priority.

Where do they do that torch thing and get pissed? Is it in Cornwall? Also the UK equivalent of the Pamplona bull run, if there is one? Maybe a night out in Widnes

That looks superb Reg. End of January too. Maybe, just maybe, will pencil that one into my blank schedule.

Northern Ireland on the lash wouldn't be a good idea still. In general its quite safe, but the pubs can be well dodgy if you go in the wrong one.
