Travelling abroad

No issues crossing the water to The Isle of Wight for me.

 

[Jaws]

Already bought my UK stickers ( bikes and MH ) about a month ago

 

[derek kelly]

Didn’t need them flying to Spain.

Bought a bunch of GB/Union flag stickers from Amazon a couple of years ago.

 

[Malone]

I don’t have any. Just GB on the number plates. I haven’t seen any with UK on either, then most of the cars, vans and lorries I’ve seen have been French.

Let’s see what happens if and when we enter Spain.

That's good to hear, I'm off there in a coupe of weeks

If you haven’t been before shout me up for some ideas to keep yourself occupied. If you like gardens Mottistone is a must, sitting there at the moment enjoying it for the second time this week

Osbourne house is worth a visit if you’re into that sort of thing.

Definitely. As is Carisbrooke Castle and The Botanic Gardens at Ventnor.

Best places are the donkey and monkey sanctuaries though

Neither of us have been there for 40 years, so I expect there'll be some changes. I've noted Mottistone & will pass it on to the boss.

There was a write up in this months Triumph owners mag saying avoid as for £15 you get to walk in one entrance, down a dimly lit corridor and out the other end. Apparently the open bits are not what they used to be.

Never been there myself so only have second hand info. Having said that, the Trip Advisor reviews seem mostly positive, so may give it a go. Mrs L is in to history so I may not have a choice anyway.

We went on a Shearings mini break & Osbourne house was in with the excursions.

We haven’t been to Osbourne House this time round having been three times before. From memory there is more than enough outside to make a visit worthwhile…even a nice beach…..to be honest I can’t remember going inside although I’m not saying I didnt! I do remember the cake was awesome. That’s all that matters.

If you are in range try and get to Beyond the West End at Shanklin Theatre. Just got back, absolutely fabulous show, two hours of non stop musical entertainment every Thursday. The place was packed so book in advance - we only managed to get a couple of return tickets this afternoon by chance.

Not for me, have no interest in theatre, especially not musical theatre. Circ Du Soleil is about as close to musical as I get & even then I've seen two of their shows only because Mrs L dragged me to them.
