    Wouldn't it be cool to do a Dave Gormanesque travel adventure, taking all of the Barnsley's in within a certain time period.....hmm now there's a seed.....</p>

    Just up the road from Wakefield?

    I have only been to one Barnsley.

    Has anyone else been to more?

    Some years ago when in the Premiership I met a family at Old trafford who were Barnsley supporters because they cam from Barnsley Gloucestershire.

    RE: Isn't the one in Austrailia

    About 100 km's north of Sydney.

    Barnsley is located at the northern end of Lake Macquarie, near Edgeworth and the western suburbs of Newcastle.

    Features

    Take a trip into Newcastle
    Enjoy a sunny afternoon in one of the many boats on Lake Macquarie
    Catch a wave at one of the pristine beaches
    Venture into the mountains for a picnic lunch and sightseeing walk
    Fish in the lake, inlets and creeks
    Take a short drive to the Hunter Valley Vineyards.

    Sounds like a Barnsley worth visiting.

    OK, let me have a think about how this could work, in terms of logistics, sponsorship, timing, costs etc. I'll come back with something in a bit.

    When I was a student I met a girl who supported Barnsley just because that was her surname

    I tried my hardest to bang her, but as usual she turned me down
