    ..so if i take her somewhere with loads of boozers

    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.

    I’ll show your missus around my heated wing mirrors while you sort some of the locals out.

    Brizzle’s a nice place, it must be said! Not as nice as Bath, though!

    somewhere with loads of boozers

    That would be Marlborough then. Lovely little town, glorious countryside surrounding it and lots, and lots of pubs! The Lamb on the Parade is the pick, 6X tapped straight from the wood. Lovely pub.

    Flash, i might even come down to ‘that there London’, and you can show me round some nice pubs.
    if you fancy, that is.

    Cork’s nice.
    Durham’s lovely.

    But she really wants you to take her to Paris.
    They all do, it’s hardwired.

    Madrid’s good for a weekend, not so good (from a tourist point of view) for much longer. Seville and Granada are also good for long weekends.

    Den Hague.

    I loved Amsterdam when I lived there.. Get past all the usual sights, & you’ll find some awesome parks, beautiful architecture, & great places to eat and, well, just enjoy it all.

    wrightyson – if you were being serious about Belper, I’m coming over there to give you a slap!

    Newcastle? Loads to do in a city that isn’t too big so you can get around it.

    Plenty of good walking and exploring around Bath, and loads of good pubs and eateries; more eateries than you could reasonably expect to sample in a weekend. The Raven’s good in the center, and if you go for a wander over to Victoria Park, look for St James’s Wine Vaults just off Julian Road in St James’s Street. Lovely cosy little pub, proper local with a great atmosphere and good beer. I have a good friend lives in Bath, and it’s our ‘local’ when I go down to see her. She only lives about ten minutes away, so it is local.
    Lovely walks through Sidney Gardens up to the Canal, and you can then walk back down to Widdcombe, and along the river past the Rec to Pulteney Weir. Bath’s blessed by the fact it’s a very small city, so quite easy to cover most of it easily in a weekend.

    Oh, and Chagford, in Dartmoor.

    My favourite place ever.
    :
    I work there and live nearby. Should point out that lovely as it is it really isn’t going to be troubling places like Barcelona and Prague as a chic city break destination – Dartmoor is however a fantastic place to spend a weekend anytime of the year if you like the outdoors, big landscapes and country pubs etc..

    Chester,
    Nice walk around the walls, stop for a nice meal at a ‘brunning & price’ pub, some b&b’s to stay in, and shops for the lady.

    Bristol.

    Big shops, independent shops, fancy hotels, boutique hotels, restaurants of all shapes and sizes. Great place all the amenities of a big city but on a pedestrian scale.

    No, not Bristol. Unless you like hunting for gargoyles in back streets.
