It's always good to know that others have enjoyed hearing about my visit.<br /><br />I think I will have to make May each year, my 'visit an interesting place' month. :)<br /><br />Yes, you have to admire those writers perseverance, all those hand aching hours they must have spent writing.Carolbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05578076528292643928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764329434741342023.post-52623836179409247862014-05-25T19:43:01.389+01:002014-05-25T19:43:01.389+01:00How lovely to be able to try on the costumes!

It has been really interesting hearing about your trip to Bath.<br />My grandad used to make me quills with seagull feathers when I was a child and I used to try so hard to write with them, but it was very frustrating. Those writers who did had some staying power didn't they? :-) xTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764329434741342023.post-73810476235012453182014-05-25T18:32:16.250+01:002014-05-25T18:32:16.250+01:00When I next get the chance to go to Bath, I want t...When I next get the chance to go to Bath, I want to see the Buildings of Bath exhibition, and the Holbourne Museum, and the Bath Post Museum...<br /><br />I always go to the Fashion Museum, Lizy, because the displays are different each year.<br /><br />I always learn new things, but already know a lot of the things from previous research.Carolbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05578076528292643928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764329434741342023.post-24911821400562640052014-05-25T18:11:05.359+01:002014-05-25T18:11:05.359+01:00Sounds like you'll have to make a retunr visit...Sounds like you'll have to make a retunr visit, Carol - will you go to different places or revisit these in more depth?liz younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289501717229347872noreply@blogger.com
