The ocean (OK the Bristol channel, is basically the sea) is 1.5 hours drive from home driving at the legal speed limit of 70 miles per hour!
Blackpool is basically the same, and if I wanted to go to Liverpool, then it would be about 1.25 hours to drive, and the same goes for manchester! Then again London is just over 1.5 hours away (about 110 miles)

well gimp, if it's any consolation, when my mom and i went through our worst times, i hung in the woods a few weekends or more in cabins they build back east in snow country for travelers should storms suddenly hit and they get stranded. i used to hang out there to avoid going around her & my sister who (given their religious addiction) literally said and thought i was possessed of the devil (because of my Black Sabbath, Nazareth, etc t-shirts lol)... heh heh...i had a boyfriend stay with me at the time of course. so i did "rough it" a few times too. i couldn't imagine living in a cave for any length of time tho, although most of my young years were spent outdoors. that would be just too rough. i would have to have a warm spring nearby. i need my warm baths or showers lol.
it was part of necessity,,i spent six years with no house to speak of,,wandered aimlessly from squat to squat till i realised the police would always move me on so i went scrub (bush),first down along a river under a humpy(lean-too),then up in the mountains in a cave ,yes it got cold ,but wood was a plenty and i kept the home fires burning,,and all this time mrs gimp stood by my side ,,well not living with me but always my girl,she did stay in the cave from time to time,,,,and the term odd is fine or whatever you like or how about oddly weird,,our lifes journey makes us what we are
