Cool Travelling the UK
I've never really done this before, I've been to places around the Uk but never actually travelled it like I have everywhere else I have been. Just wondering if anyone else has?

I'm thinking of doing a mini-adventure (month long) around the country and maybe catching up with some TiBB members along the way (in a non-weird way).

Wonderful, I can visit you and get an STD then pop over to see Lee and listen to her talk about her menopause.

Lol, I haven't smoked in ages (not that ever stops me), but I am planning on doing Ireland too, I've never been there.

Not yet, I'm going to get a working visa, hopefully there is quite a bit of work out there so I can earn some money whilst I travel.

..yeah, I'm not sure what the work situation is but I think there will probably be something..waiter/bar work or something..that's quite good for meeting people as well...my friend's son went a few years ago and has ended up living there permanently, he loves the lifestyle he has and there isn't a great deal in the UK jobwise atm...how long do you hope to stay for..?...

Ill probably stay for a year, and if I like it (which I have a good feeling I will) then hopefully permanently. I have nothing keeping me in the UK.

..yeah, it does seem like a fairly good lifestyle so I'm sure that you will like it..it is a shame that there isn't more to keep young people in the UK but I do understand why you would want to go...I hope that it lives up to expectations and that everything works out well for you...
