Who moved Falkirk to the seaside?

On holiday in Troon we decided to go on a Mystery Tour by bus as my mother had badly twisted her ankle. Thankfully the driver, under promise of a pint from my Father, tipped us off that the mystery destination was the small town 2 miles from our village. We did the 'Robert Burns' tour instead.

Picked up from Yorkshire - hmmm. So granny23 and I would have to travel down to Yorkshire to start our Scottish tour if we won? Ah well, I wasn't expecting to win anyway.

Elegran that is where I was born, not my choice!

I have entered the competition (as you do!) and then read the blurb. I found that one of the hotels they use is about 4 miles away from our home in Central Scotland (no where near the sea)but our nearest pick-up point is in Yorkshire.

I suppose I should be pleased that I live permanently in a prime holiday destination but I do like to travel elsewhere, particularly to the sea side.

I remember at school a teacher asking for the names of local seaside resorts and some bright spark suggesting Kirkcaldy. Another comedian came right back with "That is a last resort!"

Not that I've anything against Falkirk, and a visit to the Wheel is very interesting, particularly with grandsons on board.

I've checked their list of destinations, and Falkirk isn't on it.

Map or Satnav an optional extra?
