Wanderlust

[cosmolinguist]

Having recently lost the possibility of going to Bournemouth for a few days, I'm finding myself disappointed at the loss of a break and change of scenery. I let myself get ahead of myself and was happily imagining a few days off, bumbling around an unfamiliar place. I have holiday time to burn by the end of March and it just seemed great.

But of course because Bournemouth was fairly random, any place else would work as well. So now I'm wondering what random British city/town/etc I could impose myself on for a little while.

Try Chichester!

I've never been! So what should I know about Chichester?

The Welsh coast is nice and not too far from you either.

Ooh I could go to that café at Betws y Coed that has the tea I like... (shipping is as expensive as the tea itself!)

Because my brain works that way, I dumped a list of towns and cities in the UK into a randomiser.

It said Paisley, FWIW

Ha, good to know, thank you.

My cousins are from Paisley, it's OK but kinda like a smaller crummier version of Stockport cos Glasgow is so nearby it gets all the stuff. 10 mins by train so not far.

Cambridge!

Aw, it would be amazing to see you. I don't think I have since Hamilton!

Reading ^comments to get some ideas for if I ever hop the pond.

Was just in Bristol which was lovely (but a lot of electric cars)



St Albans - lots of CaMRA pubs
