Look forward to hearing all about how you find it. A lot of folk tie coloured string or ribbon to the wing mirror (or bars) on the side of the road they need to stay on. I found it useful at the beginning when I switched from one side to another because I daydream and it’s a quick reminder flapping about in your eyeline. Also how the fuck are you up already, you posted only 4 hours ago! Thats a good idea to tie something to wing mirror , it’s easy done to pull away from somewhere and be on wrong side 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe something to do with boarding on different places in the uk too. I don’t really know why any of it is actually happening, I’ll basically be tagging along with @Sofia as she revisits some of her favourite places while also trying to keep to the appropriate side of the road. Head to the Peak District if you get a chance, it’s a stunning place. That’s where we lived before moving to Spain. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People kept saying that to me before I went, I camped near the river at Ben Nevis, there were no midges or mosquitos. Well maybe one or two but no more than down south.
