Well... the Train Station health and fitness sign is on the corner of Station Approach, Frome, but I can't quite see how that fits into your itinery!

You are correct, Alan.

 I flew straight back into the UK (United Kingdom) (06:00) and went to a meeting about buses at the Cheese and Grain at 11:15 "direct" from the airport.    I didn't post more obvious pictures of Frome ...

Is the remaining picture Bath Bus Station?

And is that a fluttering bird in the picture?

Yes, and yes.    I went down to the bus station so what literature was available, whether there was a map showing services operating from there up yet, what was showing on the departure boards etc ... bay 14 had no destination panel on it but just the exposed framework with wires running through it and a couple of pidgeons sizing it up as their new home.   Should say "271 Devizes and 272 Bowerhill via Melksham" but there's a limit to what you can write on a pidgeon.

Could always use them to send a message to First Bus Towers in, where is it this week, Norwich?

Carrier Pigeon might be more effective than email. I've had no response to an email sent six weeks ago.
