I think Lincolnshire has plenty to offer and shall venture further afield in the near future in the name of web journalism. Saying that I passed Skegness after my stop off at the abbey but, oh dear. Enough said I am afraid. I was hoping for a wiff of nostalgia after a day out I had there with my best mate Andy Townsend in 1986 in his bright yellow Vauxhall Cavalier. The passenger seat window wouldn't stay up which gave me a Stray Cats quiff on the left hand side! It was a great summers day though and we listened to 'Summer Madness' by Kool and the Gang on the way home before getting smashed at the Flamingo nightclub in Cleethorpes. Golden days. Sorry, I digress. Miles SC,

Sadly most of us are not even aware of what is on our own doorsteps. There is some great history in and around Lincoln, especially places such as Bardney.
