Looks like you'll have fun here in the UK.

I must confess, despite living here, i haven't been to half of the cities that your route plans out.


But i'll add to what dani had to say.

Bath is a nicer town than Bristol, though both are very pretty

Not been to southern parts of Wales really, but avoid Aberysthwyth - it's a real fucking dump :roll:

Isle of Man looks like it would be fun - i know when i get a decnt car, i'm going to take the ferry out there to lap the TT circuit :good:

Scotland is green - and fucking cold!

Newcastle should be good fun - i've been told that its a good night out there 8)

Leeds is a cool cosmopoliton city - lots of expensive shops. But don't miss out York - that too is a nice city.

Macnhester is the best ... and Liverpool is similar to both Manc/Leeds.

Avoid Stoke - its a bit of a dump too

Birmingham and Coventry - their accents will make you laugh - they still crack me up

Anywhere east of Cambridge is a dump - they have the highest suicide rates over in East Anglia (Norwich and such) - really
Not actually been to Cambridge myself, but if its anything like Oxford, then it will be a nice place - try to visit both if you can :good:

Have a great trip - i'd love to hear what you make of our sunny Isles

BTW - how are you planning on getting around
