A bloody good time will be had by all....

In one of the antique shops I visit when I need a little something, I always enjoy talking to one of the owners who is British.

I told him Betty and I are hoping to do a spring trip to England and Ireland and he said he'd love to tell me all the "magical places" off the beaten track.  Due to jet lag, he advises staying put the first two or three days and hiring a car or riding a bus, then driving is the only way to go after you're rested enough to orient yourself to the "wrong side of the road"--his term.

"When I tell you where to go, no matter when you go, you're going to have a bloody good time," he said.  "But the best months to travel there are October and April."
