Oh, I know. You do see some good things, but the slowness often means that most of our time there is dark! But I didn't mean to change the subject.
I love the scenery of England, and Wales, haven't made it to Eireland or Scotland yet but want to. The wonderful hidden lanes, like green tunnels of filtered sunlight, with fruitcake-ririch mossy, ferny banks, the luscious thicks woods, with furry clumps of sweet chestnuts, and filmy beeches, the high flat moors that make me feel as if I'm in one of those 'snow-storm globes', with the huge expanses of sky, the varied coastlines with 'kiss-me-quick-hat' resorts that smell of candyfloss and fish and chips. It's all wonderful!
