The Wrong Car
Hire a 4x4 for touring the Southern California deserts. Otherwise you'll a) try and kill the suspension getting to places like Eureka Point in Joshua Tree National Park, or b) miss out on getting to other places, like Racetrack Playa in Death Valley.

Royal Observatory
Sited on top of the hill above Greenwich in London, the Royal Observatory was home to what have to have been some of the most exciting scientific developments of the Enlightenment Age. It might well be home to today's as well, but I don't know the science. I do know that it's free to enter, well presented and informative, and has fabulous views over London. And you can stand on the Meridian and watch the red ball drop at 13.00.

Old Royal Naval College
Greenwich on a sunny evening has got to be one of the most beautiful places in London. You can walk along the Thames, past the Old Royal Naval College, and stop at popular watering holes like the Trafalgar for a relaxing drink. The College is free to enter, and the Chapel and Painted Hall are well worth a viewing.

The Bluecoat
The Bluecoat is the oldest building in Liverpool city centre, built c.1717 in the Queen Anne style to house a school for poor children. It's been redeveloped and reopened in 2008 (Liverpool's year as European Capital of Culture) as an arts centre.

10 Things I'd Do Over...
List written 10 April 2008
In January 2007 a friend and I took a small road trip through Southern California. If I went again, I'd do some things differently.
Cathedral Rock
In one of the few occasions of our getting the timing right, we took a walk through Golden Canyon to Cathedral Rock early in the morning when the light was just right. The colours in the rocks were just amazing.

Erraid
This belongs with the photo under sail, as it is one of the little coves we visited on our sailing trip off Mull and Iona. This is Balfour Bay on Erraid, a tiny island off south-west tip of Mull. It featured in R.L. Stevenson's novel, Kidnapped, and is named after David Balfour. You can only get to the island by boat or on foot across Erraid Sound at low tide
