The Magic of England
Somebody once said that England invented the social season, and even in the throes of a wintry January, there seems to be a dearth of things to do. If you’re going to let the cold weather cool your festive spirit, then better you snuggle up at home and continue with your boring life. J
The secret to a great day out or a couple of days away somewhere different is not to drive. Take a bus. Use public transport. If you have children, you will find that kids absolutely love travelling around on bus and train. If you’re not having to concentrate on the road, you will get to see a lot more. Use Stagecoach or the Underground to get you from A to B.
