AUGUST 17 – 18 – BATH





• Bath is 156 km west of London and is set in the beautiful country of Somerset. Its population is about 80,000 and decreases by about 20,000 when university it out (there are 2 large universities in town);
• To walk through the Roman Baths is delightful. The main spring was treated as a shrine by the Celts and the Romans certainly put their architectural skills into use here;
• The town is just delightful. The people lovely and helpful and the little pubs and bistros in main centre of town are beautiful. The hanging baskets of flowers, the lovely gardens and the river Avon running through town turns it into a village feel;
• Mum wasn’t arrested by the ‘Bobbies’ but we did try!
