[4-p]

Top of Ben Nevis

 

[The Merry Prankster]

Yell.

 

[Stat Brother]

Arundel.
Shirley any further north is a different country.

 

[Frutos]

Whitby, on a school trip.

 

[Waynflete]

Maybe they should build a MASSIVE permanent traveller's site there.

That's what the Vikings thought.

 

[Hyperion]

Durness in Scotland. You can't get much further on the mainland

 

[JOLovegrove]

Ullapool in Scotland. My mum's partner's mum's partner owns a cottage up there so went to stay for a week. Very nice scenery and some great food!

 

[Mileoakman]

Cape Wrath,right the very top there,also surfed at Brims Ness and Thurso so when I paddled put into the North Atlantic I may have been even further North.

Cape Wrath for me too. Can't get further North on the mainland

 

[Norman Potting]

Dunnet Head which is near John O'Groats but slightly more northern.

I believer that Dunnet's Head is geographically the northernmost point of mainland Britain, John 'o Groats is the nearest settlement. It is a dump, been there. Most northerly for me was a day trip to Orkney which I found a fascinating place, Kirkwall, Stromness, Scapa Flow, the Churchill Barrier, Italian Chapel, Skara Brae and the stone circles (can't remember their name). We sure got our moneys worth!

[Butch Willykins]

Newcastle. Off to the land of the miserable sweaties in December for a weekend on Loch Lomond.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Ullapool in Scotland. My mum's partner's mum's partner owns a cottage up there so went to stay for a week. Very nice scenery and some great food!

Then from there we took a ferry to Stornoway.

We stayed at Thurso so could see Orkney, but went to Dunnet Head on the way to John O'Groats. It was more interesting watching the birdlife than the dump at J O'G, I agree.

Dunfermline.

 

[Ludensian Gull]

Cape Wrath

 

[Gregory2Smith1]

Dunfermline.

was that a visit to east end park or to see the skids?

 

[Ernest]

[ferring seagull]

Glasgow and it was a shit hole.

If you look at the worst parts of any town/city you will come up with this predictable 'uneducated' * comment.

Glasgow is a fine city with the best Victorian Architecture in the UK. From an 'Arts' point of view, it is way ahead of most places in the UK, having Scotland's National Orchestra, Opera and ballet and some of the very finest museums you could encounter anywhere.

*PS. my comment is not meant in an offensive way but just to point out there is more to anywhere/anything than just what appears on the surface.' Perhaps I should have said 'unenlightened'

Crawley

 

[Marty McFly]

Hartlepool. To see the Albion. Bit of a hole!
