We had some free tickets for the train so the following wk we went to Edinburgh for the wk end. It was so far! About 7 hrs on the train with the stop in Birmingham and a bit of waiting in between trains.
Att and I went on a Scotch Whiskey Tour which was fun. Then we just walked around the city. Would've like to have seen more of Scotland, loved their accents there and think further north would be really pretty to see. I think we'll make another trip up and see Inverness as my mum and Ron keep raving about it!
The following wk after that we went to Nottingham and then Birmingham the wk after that.
We left a bit too late to go to Nottingham so we didnt get to see much there (really wanted to see Sherwood Forest and go on a Robin Hood tour)
Birmingham was great (Nic's suggestion) we went shopping :P and saw a movie. Cinema is almost the same size as the piggery (with the moo cow chairs) in Byron!
