I'll go ahead and recommend Copenhagen then. A new quite awesome exibition on vikings just opened in the national museum.

I had a few days in Copenhagen early this year. It's a lovely city but very expensive (even for someone used to London prices).

I was going to suggest Chester and Conwy.

What has a 1940s radio comedy double-act got to do with it ? :unsure:

Actually now that I've looked, looks like the BBC had a tv episode of that exact itinerary. :D

I think I would avoid a lot of Southern Europe for the suggested dates, much as I love those places August is not the month to go.

There's no part of Australia (except maybe Tasmania?) that truly gets *cold* in the winter, right?  I thought all of Australia had either a tropical climate or climates like southern California or Florida, depending on humidity.

Australia in the 60s would be less than ossum for summer vacation.

It's a continent, I wouldn't be surprised if it has a bit more variety than that. 

Maybe it even has a glacier somewhere?  :unsure:

edit:
I misremembered there aren't any glaciers in Australia, though bizarrely there are some in Papua/Papua New Guinea island of all places.   :hmm:
