Out Here No One Can Hear You Scream

The tag line to the famous film Alien reads 'In space no one can hear you scream' and that's sort of what it's like out here in the deep south of England.We are pretty much in the middle of nowhere. There are a few towns dotted around but nothing that you would call civilisation, especially if you come from a city. Within said towns there isn't much going on, there are few people out and about and there is very little to do. However, down one dirt track we found something we weren't expecting to find. The Gnome Reserve. I assume this is where unwanted and unloved gnomes go to die and get weathered away by the elements. Or maybe it's just where you go and shoot gnomes. Either way this is perhaps the most random place I have ever seen and no joke this is the only thing in a radius of about thirty miles that there is to do. This is what I have to work with.

Tomorrow we hope to travel a little bit further and go to a wildlife and dinosaur park. Apparently it's like Jurassic Park but with trained dinosaurs. From what I can gleam there is a T-Rex you can stroke and feed a live sheep to. Family fun all around.

We also went to a place today call Westward Ho! The place by the way does have an exclamation mark at the end of it so you know it's going to be ace...The reality was something quite different and if you listen to the Morrissey song Everyday Is Like Sunday you will get the idea of the place. Oh and today is Sunday so makes doubly more sense.
