This is going to be a really short blog post on the Museum of Bath at Work! The Museum of Bath at Work is a cross between a museum and a recreated factory. It reminded me a lot of living history houses which make you feel as though you are walking through a still inhabitable… Continue reading Museum of Bath at Work

The Roman Baths
What a truly amazing experience at the Roman Baths. I arrived nice and early and found myself to be the only person in line. Not only this, but, when I went to the free tour meeting spot an hour later it was just me and a lovely couple from London. So I essentially got a… Continue reading The Roman Baths
Fashion Museum – Bath

We dropped off our rental car yesterday morning and headed straight for the Beatles Story Museum at Albert Dock. The dock is absolutely beautiful packed with restaurants and museums. There are two bands in… Continue reading The Cavern Club Liverpool
