You never used the spa? :O
The spa is amazing, Im still amazed to this day about the mechanics of it all! It is a very beautifully town, when I went I remember it being very artsy with quite afew galleries and museums to go to :)

I know I feel a bit stupid, its supposed to be the highlight of the visit! The museums and galleries still there, though I swear some of the geography of the shopping streets have changed and probably expanded a bit, it has been several years since the last visit so it might just be in my head.

Mr Glass what was Bath like as I really want to go there?
I find it a stunning town, the Roman heritage is evident everywhere. Walking around is bliss with some beautiful scenery as you walk around and up crescent hills. You can actually walk everywhere as it is a very compact town and I know you love walking. Its of course famous for its Roman spa built around Bath's natural hot springs which I find fascinating. And you can even spend time in the spa yourself, as part of it is open for use to the public. Though I never actually used it, I just visited the museum spa. In the centre, there is a vast network of shopping streets and quaint markets to satisy the shopper in you. In some ways, its like our own little Rome!
Sounds perfect, history, shopping and walking I feel a weekend away coming on o/

Slightly off topic but still holiday related. Does the site onhotels.com look OK? Just looking to book my Paris hotel and came across this site and the prices are about 25% cheaper than all the other sites I've tried, it appears to be too good to be true but could be genuine. I'm not brilliant at IT so wouldn't know; its also got McAfee secure which I've never heard of.
Thanks anyone for any help.
