I would LOVE to visit England!! You will have to have other blogs about some of the things you have on your list, likesome of the places and foods that you mentioned. Thanks for sharing. I am now going to be looking up High Street and cottage pie. And what is Goshawk, you mentioned it twice. I can't believe you are already far enough along to find out what you are having. I WANT TO KNOW !!! Share soon! Love ya.
WOW what a list. I don't know what 1/2 of that stuff was but that was a long list of loved stuff.
England is missed by us too!
We felt more fond of it once we left. We did enjoy it while we were there, but now we really want to go back. Can't for work, since his job is no longer there. Def for a vacation someday. Colin was born at Huntindon NHS, remember.
