Back in Bournemouth after a crazy road trip north - Bournemouth to Cardiff to Glasgow, via Blackpool and Lancaster. We went north from Wales through Shropshire and stopped at a cheese shop/cafe near Leominster.
I'd wanted to visit Blackpool to see what the kitsch British seaside holiday resort was like. It was mostly all closed up, and a somewhat bleak place. The promenade abounds with `fun' places and of course the large tower.
Glasgow was good. A good Ship of Fools meet was had with about 19 people. While there I also visited Glasgow Cathedral which was really excellent. It has a great underneath bit.
