Some cracking pubs though.

He's registered on here in March but is one of the only not to have posted yet to join in the fun! Maybe a PM will trigger a response? :?

No doubt.
The influx and guest situation is amazing!
At one stage I really thought me, Billy and Bandit would have to dap out and get more chairs, biscuits and tea for all the guests!

Adamski has indeed just moved to Bath (right in the very centre actually) and is now the owner of my old DTR turbo saloon, hence why I now have his CX 20 pallas. He is (by his own admission, and I hope he doesn't mind my mentioning) somewhat flat broke for the moment, as the move cost rather more than he'd hoped, so I suspect he won't be about for a little while. At least the BX is saving him a bit of cash for the moment.
... all landings are in fact controlled crashes, and any crash you can walk away from is a good landing. The definition of a good pilot is a man with the same number of landings as take-offs.

Bath is a very expensive place to be mores the pity, as it's lovely.

I'm over that way rather alot, really must drag him out for a pint, and keep an eye out for the white DTR instead of the CX!

And bad place for BXs banging something else up the arse, for some reason, judging by my own experiences with the rear of an Audi last year, and the silver estate sitting at the doc's, whose driver must have been just microns away from the pearly gates courtesy of the back of a lorry. Come to think of it, it's a bad place for cars in general.

Returning to the topic of Bath and pubs aside, there's a cracking independent bookshop just off-centre too (if that's your bag - it's mine and Mr B's is the name of it). One of the few places left in the country where it's viable to run such a thing in a largeish town/city .

Also the music shop on/near Poulteney bridge (Duck, son and Pinker) which makes me think of its old branch in Swansea 30-odd years ago and looks equally eccentric in that unselfconcsiously-uncool-music-shop way.

Skint and driving a BX? What other kind of BX driver is there, in general? The two generally go together like ironic mention of fish and bicycles in the same breath.

If you're on any time in the near future, Adamski, I head in the general direction of Bath from time to time when visiting my brother, though he's nearer Chippenham nowadays in a gloriously-named village near Corsham. I'll gladly stand you a pint if you're up for it. More BX owners not that far to the East, too.
