I'm 44 and a single mum to a son who starts school next year and am lining up a move from Brighton to Bath next spring. It's basically my 'new fresh start' after my divorce. I grew up in the west country and have always wanted to move back, but the little voice in my head is making me a bit nervous. To cut to the chase, I think Bath will be lovely, and a great place for my son to grow up, plus all the advantages of good schools, and easy to get to the coast etc, but, and here's the but, I'm secretly worried it might be a bit conservative with a small c which isn't really my thing at all. I'm not religious and all the schools seem to be churchy, which I actually really don't like, plus I'm on my own and want to meet fortysomething women like me! I'll need to make friends! Can anyone give me a bit of a lowdown on Bath? Please allay my secret fears and tell me its not all rugger types voting tory! I don't have a massive budget for a house, can just about scrape a 2 bed cottage there, and I get the (false?) impression it can be a bit snooty. Sorry in advance for the hideous stereotyping, don't want to offend anyone, it's just so hard getting a feel for it if you don't live there or know it. Thank you.
me! I'm not remotely wild or alternative but I do want to meet people I like
