First their was Billy

Then came the Badger!

Time 2 Wander

Billy Badger has been very quiet of late - some say he's hibernating for the winter, others speculate he's lounging in the sunshine on far off shores.

Billy come home

Billy come home Billy is searching for his native land Flicking through the stations with the dial in his head Picking up (background: static) And a male voice choir on the short wave band Billy taps out Jim's number on the phone Sits shaking as he waits for Jim's answering tone

Themal baths and spa treatments in Wiesbaden

Part of my latest online series "Staying Healthy Wealthy and Wise"

Here is a selection of places I've refered to whilst researching the spa town of Wiesbaden in Germany:

• Super Scoop It
• Curious Curations
• Storytime

The Radisson Blu Hotel in Wiesbaden places guests in centre of inspiring natural surroundings
Nestled between the Rhine and the foothills of the Taunus Mountains, Wiesbaden is a rich oasis of culture and German history. Due to a Mediterranean climate and the savoir-vivre of its residents, this city proudly bears the title of "Northern Nice." Popular local attractions include natural thermal springs, an abundance of neo-classical architecture and Biebrich Palace.

So Far Sofia

Here's a curious curation Bulgaria's capital city Sofia

Almost every major city in Central and Eastern Europe seems to aspire to be the “new something”. That Sofia is on this shortlist represents a significant achievement.

Sofia

While Bulgaria has long attracted tourists to its various Black Sea resorts, its capital city was not on the agenda of any but the most intrepid and specialist of travellers until recently.

Ten years ago the Times wrote

"As Bulgaria approaches full membership of the European Union (scheduled for next year), many of the restrictions that have so far held back Sofia’s potential as a weekend-break location will be eased. There are, for example, no low-cost airlines operating directly between Britain and Sofia. Once an “open skies” market exists, it is hard to believe that others will not explore this virgin territory"

How very true
