Tonight Bath City FC has a boxing event at 7.30pm including eight fights, one EBO title fight and live music. Tickets will be available on the door. This is the fourth EBO boxing event Bath City have run in the past 18 months and the events are always a big success.
A new event at Green Park Station in Bath this Sunday is the Early Bird Christmas Market. Lots of stalls selling food and things to buy for Christmas.
Combe Down Art Group members have been busy this week preparing for Saturday's annual art exhibition and sale. Inspiration for the show has been provided by Arnold Lowry's recent watercolour demonstration. The sale in the Church Rooms (opposite the Co-op) is from 10am to 4pm and the theme this year is Combe Down so you will find many paintings of the village. Member Paul Workman will be giving demonstrations and will be judging the best works. Admission is free.
There was great excitement when cranes were introduced on to the Somerset Levels recently. On tonight Amy King will be giving a talk Cranes: a brighter future for Somerset's Wetlands at 7.30pm in The Baptist Church Hall, High Street, Keynsham. Tickets are adults £2.50/children £1.
On Tuesday there is another of the Bath Vintage and Antique Trade Fair at Green Park Station. Around 40 stalls selling unusual and unique pieces from 9.30am-3pm.
Remember that Sunday is Remembrance Sunday and whatever you are doing stop for reflection at exactly 11am.
The Mozartfest starts this weekend. The lunchtime concerts are a great way to relax for a while. They start at 1pm at the Guildhall, Bath.

“@chrissyw17
"we are not making any profit from the event"
Not surprised if you're pointlessly holding it at the Royal Crescent Hotel, that well known, cost effective, hub of technology.
"Workshop is going brilliantly today"
If that were true you wouldn't have needed to advertise at such short notice.

The skyline walk is fantastic except you can see so little of the city from it. Much of the view is obscured by trees, including at Sham Castle.
Also the path from North Road up to the folly is virtually unwalkable in these sodden conditions.”

“How about doing the Bath Skyline walk? The cost? Nil. Something in the eye for those intent on extracting money from you.”

“Hi "joining" thanks for your comment. Estelle Weyl is an internationally published author and industry expert, consulting Apple among others, we've flown her in from America (Silicon Valley) so understandably her costs are high. This is a community event and no profit has been made.
Luckily people with a genuine interest in this field have seen the value and I'm pleased to report the Workshop is going brilliantly today.
For those who are interested there is Post Workshop Drinks at The Cork Vaults in Bath tonight (Monday 12 November) from 19.00 to give everyone a chance to network and meet Estelle.
Thanks”

“Hi "joining" just to highlight we are not making any profit from the event, Estelle is an industry expert from America (Silicon Valley) and consults for Apple among others and is also an internationally published author so understandably her costs are high. Luckily a lot of people saw value in this workshop and it's going really well today.
For those who are interested in CSS3, HTML5 and all aspects of web design etc there is After Workshop Drinks being held in The Cork in Bath from 19.00 today to give everyone a chance to network and meet Estelle.”
