2007 visits
Our plans for 2008...
So far this year we've had two trips to London, the first to the
Imperial War Museum and
another to see the fascinating Tutankhamum exhibition at the O2 arena (no
gallery though as photography wasn't allowed). For our holiday this
year we're off to the scenic Gower Peninsular in south Wales in
July. Later in the year we plan visits to St Paul's Cathedral and
the Cabinet War Rooms, then in September we've booked to see 'Joseph' and
in November we're seeing the comedian Lee Evans locally. No doubt
we'll be finding other day trips to interesting places, watch this space!

What we did in 2007...
We kicked off in April with a visit to London and the Kylie
exhibition and the Globe Theatre. Then trying to dodge the summer
showers in July we ventured up north for our Shropshire
holiday, where we enjoyed several walks and tourist attraction
visits. Other activities included an August visit to the Tank
Museum in Dorset and in September a tour of London's Tower
Bridge Exhibition. We went away again in October
for a mini-break in the New Forest
- and had better weather than our summer holiday! Disappointingly, a
number of our planned visits didn't materialise due to the rotten 2007
summer weather!

May report...
May proved our busiest month ever! Ever since we removed the
framed layout at the end of last year we've witnessed a dramatic increase
in the number of visitors, rising month-on-month.
In May the various product reviews
were among the more popular pages, along with the New
Forest, Lake District and Somerset
galleries.
Search terms used that have returned our site include: 'tourist places
in uk', 'uk tourism videos', 'walkers sat nav', 'camcorder wind gag', 'hendon
aviation', 'panasonic 3ccd camcorder', 'steam engine video clips', 'bovington
tank museum dorset', 'brean down webcam', 'aidensfield great britain'.
Increasingly we're seeing search words used related to our product
review pages bringing us visitors. A fair number of them
arriving this way are then going off and looking at our touring
pages. Whoopee!
Website Plans
Right at the end of 2007 we launched the 'frame free' site and during
2008 we're hoping to attract some advertising.
Well, we've gotta pay for our holidays somehow! We added an RSS
tourist news feed/blog just prior to the start of the 2008 tourist season
and plan to develop it as the season progresses. Longer term we plan
some new pages - a 'rants & raves' page to highlights the best and
worse points of tourist attractions and a UK touring guide page. We
also need to split our tourist links page
which is now rather bloated! Oh, and add a search facility to cope
with our, by now, many image galleries!
We also plan more product reviews to
compliment our camcorder, Sat
Nav and talkie walkie reviews, er,
when time allows.
