I need ideas ...

Alright ladies and gents residing in England , I need help…

my best buddy and her husband will be over at my place for two weeks and we are planning to have a rocking time together … I wanna plan some adventurous unique activites/day outs ..

Help me pleeeese … so far I have planned Karting , Go Ape and a trip to snowdonia … ( hot air balooning is one option but its bloody expensive ) .. we dont want any water sports coz water freaks me out though both of thm are expert swimmers but I am not :no:

so , tell us what else can we do? or visit?
Anyone here knows any interesting places around the north of england? other the lake district .. I hate that place , its full of machars and birds and fish stink …

Re: I need ideas ...

Alton Towers or other theme parks? If you go now they shouldn't be busy cos most kids have exams. Plus you can get those buy 1 get 1 free vouchers.

Re: I need ideas ...

hmmm Alton towers was definitely recommended by a few other people as well ... Uzzy, I keep hearing its mostly for the kiddos.. is it?

Re: I need ideas ...

No I don't think its exclusively for kids cos of the rides like Air, Nemesis, Rita, Oblivion etc.

However I think Thorpe Park is the most adult of all the theme parks but you wanted things in the north which is why I said Alton Towers.

Re: I need ideas …

yeah it does sound good , i will take a look on their website now , thanks so much for recommending it uzzy … :hugz: … if you know of any other activites as well across England or scotland , do tell … :@:

Re: I need ideas ...

No problem. I was also gonna recommend Woburn Safari Park but I think that's the same thing as Go Ape. I don't really know anything else about up north apart from Blackpool cos normally stick to London attractions but isn't there a sea life centre centre in Birmingham and what about York Dungeons?
