I have a month off work. Apart from a trip to Lakes, London and Paris I have roughly 2 weeks free. Our lass is a lazy bint so I have to sort out things to do.

Has anyone got idea's for days out? anywhere in country will do. Anyone been on Helicopter tours/balloon rides they can recommend? or perhaps adventure days?

Idea's welcome :)

Go To Vegas ldo

Leave the 'lazy bint' behind.

Well Bricket Wood is famous for being the location of the first nudist colony in Britain...........never been there myself but it could be a good fun day out.........something different, meet new people

Nottingham has some nice attractions...

For our last holiday Matt and I went to Center Parcs in Sherwood Forest - lots to do there, and only a short drive to DTD ;D

Hot air rides are a nightmare to go on. Once booked they are quite often cancelled at short notice for weather reason.

Erm yeah, never thought of that. Thanks.

More ideas! this is great.

Sphering.. Me and Ling did it last week - great fun.

Its called dogging where i come from.

hire a boat on the Norfolk broads, a great day out

Might I suggest this link

lol - I was just about to suggest that they should both take the kink test again to see their new scores :D

Helicopters are excellent, I went on one in Florida and loved it.  They do them over London apparently.  Talking of London, have you been on the London Eye? That's worth doing, both during the day and at night.  Followed by a nice walk along the South Bank - pop in to the Tate Modern, further up, walk across the bridge to St Pauls.

and take in a show......live theatre is so good

Les Miserables FTW!

Great isn't it?  We saw it a couple of years ago now I guess and I was amazed that I loved it, really great show.   Really enjoyed Rent too.

I've seen it 7 or 8 times - love it - always makes me blub though :)  Haven't been for a couple of years - another visit required soon!

you can come out for a drink with me, it'll be a laugh, ask claire.

::)

It'll be a laugh as long as he's not on his 7th pint of the day by the time you turn up, stone cold sober!

Going to London sometime next week, will watch wicked, chicago and something else + a few museums. Erm might suggest Les mis only seen the film :)

Paddington Station.

Edingburgh Waverley Station

Bristol Temple Meads Station

The Pass of Glencoe.

Harrrogate - oops, you live there?

Snowdonia.

Lake District

I would advise only coming to see the Forth Bridge if you like traffic jams and accidents!  Nice from a distance though.....

Hire a barge and do the forth & clyde canal, You will get to see some really great places in Scotland.

Whilst you are here, you can take in the shows at the Edinburgh Playhouse and the Glasgow Auditorium. 

yep that's good too, but not as good ;)

go see Mama Mia ... its good fun.

Yep good call, My wife took me to see it for my birthday, it was proper good

If all these fail, try having some quality time together, alone, you know, doing the things that grown ups do. should kill 5 mins.

:D

Just back from week up there and think this is the one you mean....

Didn't go on it myself so don't know what it's like.     Although it's a train obviously I guess.......that probably is steam driven too!   ;marks;

If you want to try something really scary though, why not take a speedboat out on Windermere and let your other half drive it!!!     Took me two days to recover from that particular experience!    ;technolog;      ;madasahatstand;

Also if you like your music plumpiano in Ambleside is well worth a visit,  great shop, lovely people who deserve to succeed.

Aye thats sounds like it, hope your enjoyed trip. I will have a look at the music shop

Mine likes Les Mis, Blood Brothers, Miss Saigon etc............they're ok but I want to go and see a proper musical....

Anyone seen this one yet?
