Umbrella Street!!

Southgate, Bath

“SouthGate has pulled out all the stops with a string of new installations… SouthGate centre manager Guy Henderson said: "Rather than trying to put posters up we thought 'let's do something out of the ordinary'. We were looking at doing something different and trying to create a point of attraction. We like to think it will be a showstopper for Bath."

SouthGate has also rolled out the green lawns where shoppers can take a break and a number of decorations are new this year… And complimentary servings of Pimm's and strawberries and cream will be given out on six Saturdays across July and August.” www.bathchronicle.co.uk

Into Bath again today, for my traditional pre-holiday panic clothes shopping! I came home with four dresses, two cardigans, and two tops. I am already more than certain that it will all be returned, another part of the tradition! Maybe I’ll wait to return it all until one of those Saturdays in July, when I can enjoy some free Pimm’s and strawberries and cream at the same time!!
