Furthest North, South, East, West you've been.

Purdy much what it says on the tin, what's the furthest you've visited in any compass direction in the World and in the UK (or wherever you live).

For me:

GB
North: Loch Ness, Scotland
East: Dover, England
South/West: Land's End, Cornwall (I've also been to Holyhead in Wales, but apparently that isn't anywhere near as far west as Land's End)

World
North: Lysefjord, Norway
East/South: Sydney, NSW, Australia
West: Liberty State Park, New Jersey, USA
