round england 2005 (with a coolbox)

Kind of like Tony Hawks, but not.  This trip was inspired by Nava reading "In Search of England" by HV Morton.  So we thought we'd try and recreate it, destination-for-destination, with some extras and variety.

The blog has now been converted into pdf for off-line reading.

9th June 2005 - So the journey begins...

Well, this is the start for my journey - a trip from Uxbridge Underground station to Waterloo, and then onto Southampton Central. Oh, and pictures are to come once I get a chance to sort out the uploading and linking of pictures - so just simple posts for now.



Nava (my partner in this fiendish crime of travelling around England without a fridge) meets up with me at the University of Southampton at around 4:30pm. We head back to his place, have a cup of tea and think about our escape plan. We sort out what this H.V. Morton does on his trip (figuring out that he takes over six months to complete his journey), list out the sites and sounds that he does (turns out it's practically all 'cathedral this, cathedral that'), list out an itinery, have tuna-homous(sp?) and onion sandwich (I highly recommend), and then off to bed.
