Bath

A lovely day in Bath – its tourist time!!!

Françoise returned from her yoga at around 11:30 so do we go to Bath or do we not? She wants to find a suitable piece of luggage to take away with her when we go to London in a couple of weeks.As the sun is shining and the forecast is good we decide to go. We jumped on our most useful bus which is the 172 from Bristol to Bath via Radstock and return. Our first stop was Morrisons, a branch of the...

A pictorial visit to Bath for my eye injection

To my great relief the uncomfortable chair which we had to sit on whilst receiving the injection has been replaced by a very comfortable mattress. Relaxing was far easier. Sometimes when I am injected I get a large red floater in my eye like a blood bubble which wobbles around on its own. It normally disappears after a day or so. I got one this time and I hope it does this time. Prior to the...

An Arty Day in Bath

It is indeed a relief to have a positive diagnosis. I guess the bill will be £1500 For those of you who are not my regular readers I have wet macular degeneration in my left eye and need...

Bath springs back to life. Well, sort of

It is my day to have my eye injection, now once every two months which is a good sign. As last Monday was the date set for business to return to normal, except inside drinking in pubs  (we have to outwit the wily virus). We decided to make a day of it and visit Bath. We sat in the front seat of the Park and Ride bus from Odd Down to the city centre. We committed the crime of sitting site by...

The last day of freedom – a trip to Bath

Time to get of the house on this the last day before lockdown 2, a totally useless and corrupt plan to enslave us all and destroy small businesses. The USA election is the usual mess which hopefully will be sorted out by Friday. To Bath. A walk along an area by the Town Hall Admin offices. Lovely to see such a show of flowers. The river Avon, that bisects Bath. In full flood due to earlier...
