Happy travellers and a puzzle, too!

[Lvandelft]

After more than 2 weeks traveling through England and a small part of  Scotland and meeting
many friends at the D.W, we were happy to return safely at home yesterday evening.

We had a wonderful trip with mostly good weather, though the first days it was rather wet. Never seen such enormous mushrooms before

mushrooms?

but the roads were o.k.

We saw some typical British? party’s , like in the old days…

[Lvandelft]

and some evenings were very cosy …

We call those golf balls Luit! Through which parts of England were you travelling? The garden party and single track road are quite unusual.

With such balls it would be rather Farmersgolf, I did not know the Brits play this as well, see:          http://www.boerengolf.nl/english/index.html
you can even buy adequate footwear for this

I can only give you a roughly impression on a map Anthony.
We drove about 4.400 kms in total!
In the Southwest we drove probably more single track roads, many with grass verges in the middle, than normal roads

We noticed that in Britain quizzes are rather popular in pubs. We were sent away for dinner at a big pub which was renown for good food.
They had no table free for us, which meant 6 mls. driving to another place 
So it's maybe a good idea to make a quiz and I show pictures of places along our tour where we have been. Sounds like fun to me to see if the "Islanders" know their country

To make it easier for a start, we drove on the first day from Dover up to W. Yorkshire where we visited the next rainy day a museum in a small town dedicated to a famous British person.
I think that at the most places some Forumists already have been, so it's not to difficult.

There will be about 20 pics, so maybe this should be better moved to the Puzzle thread?

Perhaps in Bronte country Luit

 Goodness me! To go that far I thought you would have fallen in the sea!

 I will make a new puzzle page for you, Luit.

I did say that the first one would be easy. Indeed Brian, the picture was made in Haworth.

Maggi, as soon as I know where to put it, I show more pictures. Sorry for giving you more work 

[Maggi Young]

Sorry, Luit, I've been thinking WHERE to put it, and Angela dropped in for tea and cake and I forgot what I was doing!  


 I think I'll take all your happy posts about the subject off to a new thread.....
