Brno

Well I thought Bratislava was in need of a bit of tender loving care. Brno needs to start with underpinning and shoring up before they get the paint out. The city centre is in pretty good nick but stray much further and it's struggling.

After the disappointment of the Villa Tugendaht being closed there were quite a few disheveled looking gems of 1920's and 30's architecture to be found.

Student halls of residence



There was also a great church that was now a snooker hall and restaurant! Pics of that will be on Facebook when I'm back.

A lot of yesterday was spent locating a hacksaw and padlocks to remove and replace those broken or lost from luggage. Has anyone ever tried miming a padlock. That would have had Lionel Blair on his knees!!

Came across an awesome cooked meat shop. Smoked spine anyone?



I found another shop that was cheap, even by Czech standards so stocked up on train snacks :-) Got back to B and B and found they were all at least 2 years out of date! Doh!

Right. A train awaits.......
