est urant – bhs is heavenly

080302-090122_350d_img_3641.jpg

this was taken in bath last month.  it used to be full of romans, so i guess ‘est urant’ means something to them.

update:  Alan emailed me to say that my hunch might be right, and it could actually mean something in latin.  his suggestion was a little wilder than i imagined, but when i looked it up here it said ‘est urant’ means ‘is heavenly’.

a great roman word play from the great city of Bath.  excellent stuff.  well done all.

cake

i ate this cake at a meeting yesterday.  it lead to a greasy cake stain on my notes.  i left myself a note for the future so i’d know what it was.

i was on the way to a meeting with a lord (which was cancelled because he was summoned to the house of lords at the last minute.

on the way i spotted this cavalcade coming, so i got out my big camera and grabbed some shots

and then i enlarged the people …

they came out of buckingham palace.  i suspect the actual member of the royal family is in the car (at the top)

they certainly had nice hats, which is important for a carriage rider
