6 months anniversary with the girlf this weekend And we fancy going away on saturday and then coming back on the monday.
Problem is.....Where is there to go? Weather isn't the greatest around the UK right now. but ideally want to go somewhere there is something to do especially for the whole day sunday etc.
Not looking for a million mile journey, but 200 miles ish within my postcode RM13
Suggest away

What about France? Its less than 200 miles away? £20 on the boat (Last time I checked) Can fill you car up with cheap petrol too 
I cant suggest anything in the UK as I dont know of anywhere decent.

I almost suggested Blackpool and I thought to myself took the baby there the other day and nothing was open, spent most of the day in arcades and watching her on the teacups , thats why I suggested France.

I went just past cardiff last year to get shite loads for the corsa does that count 
Where would you suggest in south wales superlite?
Kat - Cheshir and Zoo sounds like a good one, ive suggested that Is blackpool that bad or is it because you're not far from it?
Tom - shoe museum?? Mk could be a good stop off on the way home if we go north though

Not a lot to do in Bath, theres some nice restaurants and alright shopping. Plenty of golf courses about and the horse racing. More to do in Bristol but Bath is more picturesque
Although Longleat's not that far and a good day out

It's one of them once you've done it you've done and not to return
Probablly be better when the lights are on for tourists tbh more open etc
