inteawetrust:

In 2008, I spent about 3 months in England, over 2 visits.  Then, I moved there from Chicago in early 2009.  Therefore, there is a lot that I’ve never seen.  I kind of want to make a list of 101 things to see and do in England (or the UK in general) but am not always sure what is worth doing, so I am asking the internet for help.

I am pretty open minded about the kinds of things I enjoy doing.  If I had to choose forever, though, I’d rather play in the dirt on a scenic hill top than people-watch on a busy city street.

I’ll start with a few I’m kicking around for this spring:

1. See some live music in the local cathedral.
2. Go walking around Windermere.
3. Stonehenge
4. Watch the tide come in along Morecambe Bay
5. Explore Silverdale

What would you recommend?  I will edit the list as we go.

I suggest you get hold of a book called “Bollocks to Alton Towers: Uncommonly British Days Out”. It is a sort of guide to the weird and quirky places to visit in the UK, and a funny read too.
