Aye, the Great 'Ecky Thump' festival

Not to mention the 'Running with the Black Puddings'

That last one has resulted in many a serious injury.

Then, of course, there's the slaughter of the virgins on Ilkley Moor, although this one is dying out due to a decreasing lack of suitable victims ;-)

:-D :-D :-D

Ah.....thanks for the heads up. We've a Portsmouth Mary Rose ticket which expires tomorrow. We were thinking of going down there but it sounds as if the IoW event might effect the roads from the north.

Hope you find somewhere interesting to go.

Off to check the travel reports. :-(

Friend and I want to go out today.
We quite liked the idea of the New Forest but today there are 'things' happening:
Peugeot event at Beaulieu, D Day event at Lymington, Round the Island yacht race Isle of Wight, which means the roads will be chokka. The yacht race means any seafront from Southsea West is out.
He suggested Wiltshire, but with the Summer Solstice, the A303 and any roads West are out. I think we'll have to head north!!
