It isn’t even Halloween, but a massive and fully lit Christmas tree has been put up in town. This is typical Bath. Go over the top about an event and encourage residents and visitors to overspend in the shops. However, whereas another town in England – say Middlesbrough – would have a man, sweating it out in a cheap Father Christmas suit, Bath at least tries to be sophisticated, by buying the biggest tree outside of Norway.

Even those Bath residents upper class enough to shop at Sainsbury's, have started wiping their own backsides. Presumably a bidet doesn't remove ones poop as effectively as toilet tissue, and with Mabel the Maid off sick with coronavirus, Lord and Lady Muck have to wipe their own bottoms. See... not one sheet left! ...

About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
