From our trip to the UK last this summer. For us it was a chance to dig out all the warm clothes we never get to wear here. People were incredibly friendly and London is a fascinating city. We stayed in a little hotel just outside Greenwich. We also visited the Cotswolds, Wales, and the Isle of Man.

These are from the Isle of Man.
The footpath to the top of the highest mountain. There are sheep everywhere hence that style of gate, called a "kissing gate"

An Atalanta 26 at a Classic Boat meet in Peel, we have to get ours back in the water:



I loved this Post box sign in Peel:



The cutest little water wheel in a glen we hiked along.



The largest waterwheel in the world, it was for pumping out the mines.



You really do have to watch out for the sheep. In some areas there are no fences and they have sheep warning signs for a good reason.





Important sign for gearheads. On the Isle of Man only this means unrestricted, which means no speed limit after this point. In the rest of the
UK unrestricted means 70 MPH. The little diesel Ford Focus rental with 5 speed was pretty peppy and there are some great winding roads. Of course, there can be the aforementioned sheep, lorries, farm tractors on tiny little roads with rock walls on either side so you do have to pay attention. Driving was no problem for us as we drive on the left here in the VI so it was normal.
