Guernsey

[Tengu]

After so many years without holidays many opportunities seem to be comming my way.

Dads planning on going to Guernsey for a week, and Im invited.

Any idea of things to see?

On a clear day you can see Jersey

Ill remember that.

Do you know Guernsey has always struck me as more attractive than your Isle? I think I prefer the cows....

...But of course the real laid back Island is Alderney.

Msny islanders I have met have never explored the different islands though.

I spent two days on Guernsey a few years ago, it was one and a half days too long.

Sark is my favourite of the other Channel Islands. There are no cars on the island, only tractors, bicycles and horse-drawn carriages.

It's such a beautiful, peaceful place. I proposed to my girlfriend (now wife) there.

Interesting thread, what are the islands like for walking, my wife does'nt like her walking to rugged(just her men !), and we fancied a walking holiday, no camping though, as she does'nt, despite getting me to buy her a new exped mat, thats never been out the house let alone inflated, so looking for day walks, any tips, as we've never been the the islands.

Thanks Rob

Jersey's not very good for walking. There is very little public land, the island is densely populated and the roads are dangerous.

Thank you for that Steven, good to find out before i get there !.
