    I was in Bristol last night and went through Weston-super-Mare on the way back! You were mentioned but I reckoned you and Neil MacKinnon were probably watching Corrie and having your tea. The Christmas lights are mostly up now and we went to St Nicholas Market. Great place for food. I had a delicious Portugese fish stew which was fish, potato, tomatoes and herbs. Bristol is chokka with history in the centre.
    It's a bit political but I don't reckon we should erase bad, or shameful history. It should stay as a reminder. Look how many people do not observe the 2 minute silence. They think it is nothing to do with them. Just my ha'porth.(who remembers ha'pennies)

      I definitely remember ha'pennies, remember buying sweets that cost a ha'penny 🤣
      I think you're probably right, being tucked up in my pj's but watching RUclips instead of corrie 🤣🤣
      I live St nicholas' Market, the chilli sauce shop is my favourite 🥵 always worries me when I'm mentioned in conversation because it's not normally for good reasons 🤣🤣

      I also remember ha'pennies and sixpence's and thrupenny bits. Not me watching Corrie, I'm a RUclips fanatic. If I was not having my dinner I would have been glued to the computer. The only thing worse than being talked about.... is NOT being talked about (Oscar Wilde).

    I'm a big fan of Bristol. I was there back in the summer, having taken a bus from Clevedon just for the hell of it 😂 It puts places like Swansea to shame, especially the madness that is The Kingsway. The planners haven't got a clue.
    Good to see some nighttime riding. It makes for an interesting perspective. Thanks for posting 👍

    For the first six months of my working life I commuted by motorbike to work, from Nailsea to the top of St Michaels Hill where I worked at the (old) Children's Hospital. Then, for the next six years I was a traveling computer engineer based in an office (now gone) at the end of Kings Street, a short walk from the Old Vic. Bits of Bristol have changed massively in that time, other parts are much the same. Nice place.... for a city.

    Bristol is great, no1 son used to have an apartment on Baltic Wharf and me and the Mrs used to go stay up there when they went on holiday. Handy as we have friends in ristol with bikes too.

    I've only been to Bristol twice, Weston, and I remember the traffic situation being horrendous and badly thought out. It doesn't look like it's changed.
    The emissions charges are just a money making exercise for some councils like Genghis Khan's London. They do not reduce emissions but charge you for emitting them.
    I think the SS Great Britain was the first ship to be propelled by a screw/propellor.
