All going our separate ways today - Nige back to IoM, the other two back to North Lincs.
Al's had enough of motorways so heads South via A689 to Alston and then a great run along the B6277 to Middleton in Teesdale only interrupted by a classic looking Ferrari (246?) trying to do a U turn to get back to his mate in a Aston Martin parked up a mile or so further on. Don't seem to have much of a turning circle these classic cars. Stop for an ice cream in Barnard Castle before getting the A1 at Scotch Corner. Blue skies and sunshine all the way.
All together a 1700 mile round trip and mostly lucky with the weather as we seemed to miss the rain actually falling.
We averaged £21 per night each for accomodation ranging from £13 to £35 each, all but one included a breakfast, with half of them the fully cooked variety - you don't get breakfast included for £13!!. Accomodation secretary did well with his selection, and we'd go back to any of them.
Next up is the Alps again at the end of June - a first for Nige - and another Scotland trip end of September unless we think of something different
