My thoughts exactly... Which is why I'll probably drive SWMBO instead of sending her off with a hotel booked and having a night out with the boys whilst she's away ::) ::) ::)

Last meeing she had there was in the centre of Brum and it's the first time in my life I've felt uncomfortable driving through somewhere :o :o

Oh... And can you make the Avatar smaller please... It's bleeding all over the text ::) ::)

Is it not a very nice place then?  My immediate response was to tell her to get the bus, thinking you were taking her out of the goodness of your heart ::) strange though it may seem.. :D :D

Around Bromsgrove.

Lickey Hills

A good Asda

If you want a caravan there is a good shop on the way to Droitwich.

One of the best garden centres in the country is a half mile south of above place on A38.

If I think of any more I will post them.

You can also buy LPG opposite the garden centre

Why bother - costs a lot to park and you can visit one of the seven Tescos, it is now a rubbish shopping centre.
Title: Re: What to do in Bromsgrove - Wednesday 7th Daytime?
Post by: Martin_1962 on 06 October 2009, 17:48:16
A few good examples

Shopping - Merry Hell
Garden Centres - Webbs
Countryside - head south east from Bromsgrove to the Stoke Prior, Hanbury, breakenham area
Museums - actually 1 or 2 in Worcester
Country houses on crisp points - Hanbury Hall
Canals / Rivers - Bewdley, Stourport, Droitwich, Hanbury Wharf ect
