UK Trip in January 2008
In January 2008, I went with Ken Nelson, Clint Schreiner and Clint McLaughlin to the UK for a week to work with Darren Allery. We went to Lincoln for 3 nights, then London for the rest of the trip. We also went to Blanford which is SW of London and then to Abbey Wood near Bristol.

We started off by staying at an old lodge outside of Lincoln. It had about 20 rooms, a good bar and a great restaurant. This is really roughing it!
In Lincoln, you can see the Lincoln Cathedral and the Lincoln Castle. Also, the old streets that wind down the hill. We ate for a few nights at the top of the hill. I have climbed drunk up that hill many times before after going on pub crawls down the hill
Darren said that this old castle, south of London, is very famous for being very complete and being lived in for almost 1000 years. This is Arundel Castle.
We ate lunch in a different pub every day. This pub is south of London near Arundel Castle and has an old thatched roof. I had on my long raincoat, glad to have that week.
