Come to Liverpool - City of Culture 2008!!!

If the weather's good, try Llangollen (It's about an hour an a half's drive from Stoke-on-Trent). It's an attractive little Welsh town and you can take the steam train ride every day except Monday and Friday.

If the weather's poor, head for the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester:

It's an absolutely fascinating place (and free!) even if you hated Science at school! (It takes several hours to go round even if you skip the less intersting bits). The museum is in the Castlefield area which is becoming popular with tourists so you shouldn'y have any problems finding somewhere pleasant to eat & drink. (Also, if your girlfriend is one of those women who don't think that a day out is complete without a bit of shopping, you're only just down the road from all of the temptations of Manchester city centre!).

Warwick Castle is a good day out.

Alton Towers!!

[spudqueen]

Hawkstone park and follies, Chester Zoo, The Outlet Village (Cheshire Oaks - Ellesmere Port) for great shopping!, Liverpool (great shopping again, ferry 'cross the Mersey, Cathedrals, lots of Beatles stuff), Chester, Delamere Forest, Shrewsbury, Stapeley Water Gardens, Bridgnorth, Knutsford, .........................depends what kind of day you (and she!) want.

Stratford is a really good day out, loads to do. Buxton is nice too. Or go ice skating in Telford for the day. If you fancy a longer journey drive down to Aberystwyth, its a stunning journey from Staffs and you can stop off and watch red kites on the way and stay in a seafront B&B overnight - its very quiet this time of year.

The Secret Nuclear Bunker at Hack Green (signed from Nantwich centre).  It was a real one and is now converted to a museum.

I was staying in Chester recently and we went to Joddrell Bank for the day. It was dead interesting - and i'm not a sciencey/astronomy-type person at all.

Also there;s a really good aquarium on the outskirts of chester, not far from the Zoo and Cheshire Oaks called the Blue Planet.

mdoo98...... Yes.

I'd definitely say either Blue Planet, Knowsley Safari Park or Alton Towers if it's open :)
