Carlisle

[noggythenog]

I've always thought that Carlisle seemed a decent place and what a spot to be in for travelling to many of the best roads. I went out on the piss there once but i was too pissed to really take in what kind of place it was.Whenever i get to Carlisle i feel like im pretty much in Scotland and i think as a border dwelling theres a right mixture there regarding identity.


I've driven around allot of nice roads between carlisle and north yorks from being based at Catterick.....never quite knew where i was but the roads are stunning.


I've never been north west of carlisle to Dumfries or to Stranraer either and looking on google Earth it looks a nice area to explore.


The roads off to Edinburgh...particularly the A701 is a fantastic road.


Then of course the Lake district which you know so well.


Sounds like a good idea because like you say it is more affordable so a better quality of life and less rat race will be on offer.


Hmm i havent actually helped.........Bump!
