Sarah_loves_mika Posted November 24, 2007 Author Share Posted November 24, 2007 Good afternoon Great Britain! Its nice to see that so many of you love our country. And Christine - i totally agree! Everytime i go to Spain for a holiday, the one thing i miss is the green grass and the green fields and all the trees. Britain has some of the most gorgeous places. My favourites are the North York Moors (because i live really close) and the Peak District. The Lake District is also gorgeous too. Ill find some photos and post them later.
