OUR READERSMany thanks to the travellers who used the last edition and wrote to us with help-ful hints, useful advice and interesting anecdotes:Alice Gossington, Charlotte Dawes, Chris Girdler, Chuck Wiener, Eric Pellissier Tanon, Susanne Lanz, Tohru Yukimura

AUTHOR THANKSNeil WilsonMany thanks to all the helpful and enthusiastic staff at tourist information centres throughout the country, and to the many travellers I met on the road who chipped in with advice and rec-ommendations. Thanks also to Carol Downie, and to Steven Fallon and Keith Jeffrey, Steve Hall, Russell Leaper, Brendan Bolland, Jenny Neil, and Tom and Christine Duffin. Finally, many thanks to all my co-authors and to the ever-helpful and patient editors and cartogra-phers at Lonely Planet.

Oliver BerryThanks for help and assistance on this book go to Alice Sommerlad, Thom Hunt, Rupert Ellis, Dave Grimstead, Jim Burns, Lucy Granger, Simon Timms and Hetty at Koru Kayaking. Special thanks to Susie & Gracie Berry, to Belinda Dixon for co-authoring skills, to Neil Wilson for steering the ship, and James Smart

and all the folks at Lonely Planet for guidance and sage advice.

Fionn DavenportThanks to Andy Parkinson at Visit Manchester and Joe Keggin at Marketing Liverpool for their help; big thanks to Saralinda Turner at Lonely Planet for her patience and perseverance, and also to Neil for being the good steward and James for, well, everything else.

Marc Di DucaA huge ‘ta’ goes to all the staff at tourist offices across the Southeast (those that haven’t been axed that is) but especially to the helpful guys in Hastings, Canterbury and Rye. Also thanks to Therese at Canterbury Cathedral and my Kyiv parents-in-law Mykola and Vira for looking after sons Taras and Kirill while I was on the road. And last, but certainly not least, heartfelt gratitude must go to my wife Tanya, for all those long days we spend apart.

Belinda DixonHuge thanks go to: James Smart for having faith (and the gig!), Lonely Planet’s behind the scenes teams, and fellow authors for humour, wisdom and travellers’ tales. Everyone encoun-tered on southwest-wide travels for tips, facts and countless kindnesses. And JL for sharing the road trips (especially kayaking, fossil- hunting and afternoon tea drinking) and still making me smile.

E SCENES

Peter DragicevichMany thanks to the friends on the road who made this such an enjoyable assignment, es-pecially Kerri Tyler, Tim Benzie, Paul Joseph and Kurt Crommelin. Extra special thanks to Matt, Clare, Charlie and Artie Swaine for the Bristol bonhomie. Much love to Phillippa Steel – an absolute inspiration and a true friend.

Damian HarperMany thanks to a long list of helpful individu-als: John Patrick Egan, Fiona Jenkins, Steph-anie Francis, Daisy Harper, Amy Williams, Arlene Fraser, Matthew Scudamore, Daniel Hands and last but certainly not least, Timo-thy Benjamin and Emma Rosalind. A tip of the hat also to the people of London who make this city such an exciting and fascinating place to call home.

Anna KaminskiI would like to thank the supportive Great Britain team, particularly Neil and James, plus everyone who helped me during my travels. In particular, a huge thank you to Christopher in Hay-on-Wye; Cate and Asher in Conwy; Jo, Manu, James and CAT staff in Machynlleth; Geoff in Brecon; Martin in Har-lech; and the good people of AA for towing me to Swansea. I am also grateful to Jan Mor-ris and her partner Elizabeth for the gracious hospitality shown to a complete stranger turning up on their doorstep.

Catherine Le NevezCheers first and foremost to Julian, and to all of the locals, tourism professionals and fellow travellers who provided insights, inspiration and good times. Thanks especially to Ade

Andrews for the interview, and to Steven, Jer-emy, Jayni and Alan in Birmingham, Nadia in Nottingham, and Raisa and Jonny in Newcas-tle. Thanks too to Neil Wilson, James Smart, Cliff Wilkinson, Joe Revill and everyone at Lonely Planet. As ever, merci encore to my parents, brother, belle-sœur and neveu.

Andy SymingtonMany thanks are due in many places, but firstly to Jenny Neil and Brendan Bolland for a big welcome and cracking cemetery stay and to Juliette and David Paton for guaranteed warm and generous hospitality. Old mate Hugh O’Keefe was grand compa-ny on the Highlands’ winding roads, while John Campbell brightened an Unst evening. Gratitude goes also to Eleanor Hamilton, Cindy-Lou Ramsay, Riika Åkerlind, the Jack-son-Hevia family and numerous helpful folk met along the way. Big thanks to Neil for coordinating and Taybank pints, and cheers to James, Cliff and the Lonely Planet team for a top organising job.
