Sofas! Another of the delights of living in Bath is The Little Theatre Cinema, this gem has one small and one tiny auditorium and shows well chosen up to the minute releases as well as a mixture of quirky and classic films. It also screens opera and ballet from top international venues such as New…
Street Food. I’ve mentioned before that every week in Bath brings a different festival, this week is no exception as it has seen the start of the annual Great Bath Feast that in fact will run for the whole month of October. The Great Bath Feast is an annual event which offers foodie demonstrations, talks…
Purple Flag. Tonight I went to a Bath Rugby home match at the ‘Rec’ for the first time this season. For those of you who may be interested we beat league leaders Saracens 21:11 which is a fantastic result that puts us to the top of the league for now. Anyway, before the game I…
