stratford upon avon - has loads of character, lots of little alleyways with antiquey type shops and craft shops that women love, a huge theatre, well several actually, a butterfly house, loads of very nice restaurants and hotels and is very well served by the motorways.

fancied Edinburgh, can go on the train too, so easy
been to Barcelona twice, ace but not again
some of the others sound a bit too posh for me to be honest.. 😐

Aldeburgh, Suffolk. I hear it's nice there but a long way from most other places.

I'd second Arundel, nice place, you'll get bored in about 3 hours but then you have all the stunning countryside around it to look at, or the inside of your hotel room ( cough )

Chichester is another place.

Ironbridge.

Don't be a silly Hector!
If I can go for a night out in the Toon, you can damned well go to Bath and sup ale at the Raven or the Salamander.

You could also have a grand time drinking in the Bear (Don't wear your club tie, though, I doubt that club is in the collection!) or the Bird & Baby in Oxford. And, if you find yourself in Salisbury, let me know, old chap, let me know!

Beijing. Nice to wander round if you like interesting/old/new stuff; lots of good places to eat. Not many pubs though and the beer seems to be uniformly bland.

In that case how about Bolton, Luton or Dudley?

See? Two votes for Chagford!

And Flashy is bob on with the Salamander in Bath - it's not the slightest bit posh, it just has lots of lovely, lovely ale.

Belfast - cheap, lots of pubs, great food and plenty to see for a couple of days. Small enough to walk round.

ton - get in amongst it at Bath, few nice shlerpers in the various quality hostelries, plenty of sights and stuff to do and then find a nice tea-room for a cream tea. You'll love it, even if you're rough as r-soles (it's not that posh) 😀

or Brizzle as DD said.
