I’m being particularly grumpy / fussy which I think is due to knowing I can’t go abroad. Not that we often do at half term. But knowing it’s not an option is putting me in a negative frame of mind.
Hi again we missed out on Florida at the start of July and have also had to cancel a couple of long weekends in France for rugby matches. We are due to go to our friends apartment in Paris at the end of October ( Half term, partner is a school Principal) so will just have to wait and see. If you do decide on NI happy to give ideas on accommodation and places to visit. By the way we have one of the lowest Covid rates so hopefully some more normality soon
Ps if your close to an airport with easyJet lots of cheap flights , car hire and aldergrove airport to north coast is 40 mins

We have booked a week from 24th down to Stratford Upon Avon, hopefully the infection rate stays ok in that area although we are from Lanarkshire so we may be the problem rather than them!

I had a weekend away with friends and we chose our location randomly - we pulled letters and numbers out of a hat to make a postcode and put it in the Premier Inn website to see where we ended up! We then researched the area to find things to do - we had a lovely weekend in Swansea 😂

Another vote for Lincoln. Such a beautiful city and so much to see walking around (and up the steep hill !)

I was going to suggest Bath as we had a lovely short break there , but I think that might be too far away from what you’ve said.
Cambridge or Norwich?

Another vote for Liverpool. Loads to do and only a short drive to Chester, Cheshire Oaks, North Wales.

I definitely couldn’t walk up it now with my knees. It’s a great memory though xx
