It's weird what you take for granted, I've (obviously) lived in England my whole life and have never done anything touristy here or been to any of the touristy places, I dunno why. Thats why I plan on making up for it on my trip to London in 2 weeks, when I lived there I never went to touristy places because I assumed I'd always live near them.

If you do ever come to England, I'd recommend Ashdown Forest. It's where AA Milne lived and theres the real 100 Acre Wood there, but even if you don't give a fig about Winnie The Pooh its still an amazing , beautiful, natural place, especially if you wander away from the pathways (though I haven't been there for many years, so I dunno if its changed at all, I wouldn't imagine so)
