Southern England Driving Tour
Given the Northerners and the Jocks are having driving tours of their respective bleak parts of the UK, how about we Southerners have a go?

Plenty of options for a day out:

Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

South Downs National Park Authority - Homepage

New Forest Official Visitor Website | Where To Stay | Attractions

Anyone up for it?

Not such a good idea, nothing to see either.
