TETBURY & BATH

Our accommodation in the village of Tetbury was very comfortable - the staff were extremely friendly & the pub had lots of games to play - we spent our first night drinking sangria (obviously beer for Doug & Cliff) & playing dominos & Uno - lots of fun.
the next day we spent wandering streets dating back to medieval times - such as the cobbled Chipping steps
 the covered market house - constructed in 1655
this building was also constructed in the 1600's

We met some locals in the street who invited us to share a drink with them in their local club. They had lots of gossip on the area, apparently Charles & Camilla live only 10 minutes from town, Charles owns a dairy & also the Highgrove shop in the centre of town - all profits from the sale of Highgrove products go to his charities.
Next day we were off to Bath
Now this was not what I was expecting to see!!!
We walked from top to bottom
tried out lots of pubs
had lots of fun
Decided to take our Ferrari for a spin
walked through some local galleries
Met up with Rob & Doug to finish off our night before our final week in London.
This has been quite an experience.
