Time for Bath

Louise and I decide to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and head away for the weekend to Bath. We had booked into what looked like quite a nice hotel. We arrived at the front gates and our driver drove us up the long drive to a rather plush looking mansion. When we walked into the foyer we were hit with a sign that said something along the lines of 'We have no hot water'! And for those who know it's not the nicest thing having a Bath without hot water. So the conclusion is that we ended up at a less extravagant hotel up the road. It did have a cute river next to it and a water wheel though:

The next day we spent the day wandering around Bath. Checking out the old Roman bath houses, shops, the river, etc. etc..

As our hotel room didn't have a proper bath despite being IN Bath we decided to finish the holiday with a bath. So we went in to town and checked into the newly created Spa place called something Spa-like. We had a two hour pass which let us roam around the venue and use most of the facilites. Unfortunately I couldn't take my camera in because of all the water. But it was really nice inside. There were different flavoured steam rooms and indoor poor with bubble and the coolest(literally) an outdoor heated pool on the roof with a view over the town. Nice! End of Bath!

Masked Casanova

Went to a Nic and Sam's combined fancy dress birthday party on the weekend with Louise. The theme was Masked Casanova which gave me an excuse to get my frilly shirts, corsets and elaborate dresses out of my closet.
