Whatever the green ribbons were meant to represent – and l am told it is Mental Health Awareness – they didn’t stay tied to the railings outside Bath Guildhall for very long.

They could be seen either side of the steps leading into the building – until eagle-eyed staff spotted them and took them off.
While l was in town it was good to see the metal shutters that have been pulled down across the old Phone4U shops for months have finally been ditched in favour of a new shop front.

Let’s hope that means a new business appearing soon on Union Street.

Meanwhile, evidence at Bath Spa station of the major Network Rail works to come in April when through trains will be halted while tracks are re-laid and platforms both widened and lengthened.


And finally. As a lover of kinetic energy and always keen to promote the ‘Nails’ wind sculpture down on the riverside at Homebase – it is good to see the Bell Inn in Walcot Street is sporting its own little mobile. Maybe someone will tell me who did it. Can we have more.

I cannot make them celebrate water in this city so maybe we should go for wind. There is plenty of it in Bath?
