dunlopp9987 Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 Hi TT friends! I'm here, an ignorant American, asking you all for guidance and advice. I'm heading over to your neck of the woods for a solo trip for 2 weeks in late April/early May and need advice on where I should stay, what I should see, etc. I spent 3 days in England years back; 1 in London, 1 in Liverpool, 1 in Stoneleigh. This will be a much more thorough trip I'm planning on spending 3-5 days in Scotland, maybe a couple days in London, a day or two in Liverpool, and have no clue besides that. Help me! Give me recommendations! Also side note: I'm planning on going to the Newcastle game on Apr 27th and would love to go/sit with any of you if you'd have me! Thanks in advance for all of your help!!

MikeO Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 What floats your boat? Countyside, cities, history, castles, museums? For my taste if I lived abroad and had two weeks here I'd spend the majority in the west highlands (Glencoe is a must) and islands of Scotland; but that would be the idea of hell for someone who fancies Blackpool. I'd obviously visit Liverpool but I'm really not a city person at all in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock hard mate, I've seen Scotsman completely covered with hat's that have nets too completely cover any bare skin whilst playing golf, my friends and I couldn't play we were covered in thousands of the little bastards. It was on Crail Links course where you are normally safe because the wind coming off the sea, but not this day it was still and they were out in force.

I'd obviously visit Liverpool but I'm really not a city person at all in general. I want to find a city somewhere between London and Liverpool for just a day trip. So if you only had 6-8 hours, which city would you stop off at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunlopp9987 Posted 7 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Oh and just putting this out there again, I'm planning on going to the Newcastle game on the 27th and since I'm doing this trip solo, would ideally love to attend it with one or some of you from TT! Now don't everybody rush all at once to be my friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
