Bridgwater Carnival in Somerset is Europe’s largest illuminated carnival and is an amazing procession of approximately 120 floats (or ‘carts’ as they are known locally) all illuminated with thousands of bulbs. Each cart is also very lively with tens of performers all wearing bright outfits and performing highly professional synchronised dancing and singing. A spectacle [...]

Somerset is famous for its amazing night time carnivals......if you are ever in this part of Britain at this time of the year you really must not miss the chance to see one!

The Wessex circuit includes Taunton and you can see below my attempts to photograph and record some of it last weekend. However the biggest circuit...

Just four months into Somerset being ruled by a Tory administration, and all is not well, as the local paper reports: A BRIDGWATER county councillor has defected to the LibDems just four months after being elected as a Conservative – slamming the new Tory administration as ‘disastrous’. Cllr Stephen Gill narrowly fought off Labour leader Pat [...]

Considering what low esteem I have for the Somerset Premier Cup as a tournament, it might surprise you to know that I was desperate to attend Tuesday night's match against Brig dwater Town. I know it is a meaningless game in a meaningless competition, but it was precisely the absurdity of the match that appealed to me. Bath City are my team, and if they have to drag themselves down into the Mendips...

That I don’t mind, but the wretched A39 from Bridgwater to Minehead needs scrapping and making into a dual carriage way, all the way – it’s entire length. Do it the Spanish way – just say that’s what’s going to happen, then make it happen! For nearly two whole hours I spent travelling from Bristol to this quaint little village just outside Dunster – it was...

Bath City were ejected from the Somerset Premier Cup tonight by Southern L eague side Bridgwater Town. It was not a narrow loss either. Bridgwater won a convincing 3-0 victory. It was the sort of defeat that could really shake a team right before a crucial FA Cup match on Saturday. It was the sort of defeat that might bring pressure on a manager to resign or cause fans to tear up their season tickets...

Today back to London on a Berry’s Coach. Which was fine. The days when Berry’s Coaches were a bane of my life are long past. The problem was, when I first moved to London, I’d travel back home to Somerset on a Berry’s Coach on a Friday night. And so it would always get spend hours snarled up in Hammersmith, on the A4, and on the M4. So no matter how optimistically the bus timetable...

A walker, Matt Vorley, had a miraculous escape after plunging down an 80ft cliff-face on the Somerset coast, before landing safely and walking away without a single broken bone. The 20 year-old was walking with five friends between Lilstock and Kilve, when he slipped and fell down the cliff. During his terrifying drop he somersaulted twice off the rocks during the last day of a week-long holiday....

When we entered the wonderful world of alpacas, almost four years ago, we knew that within five years we would be in a position to start selling our own home bred alpacas. This year that time is upon us. Patou Lola, a beautiful black Centurion girl (pictured below on the right) is off to pastures new to form part of a brand new herd. Joy, pictured next to her, although not ours, has been part of the...
