You've just got to like Bristol.

Yesterday was one of the best days out that I've ever had. My only encounters with Bristol in the past was cycling round the edge of it on LEJOG. Yesterday exposed me to a fair bit more albeit still limited to the bits between Temple Mead station and the M shed museum and the Alfini centre. The place had a buzz about it especially by the waterfront and I want to go back for a weekend to take in more of what the city has to offer.

Temple Meads Station - great architecture

Inquisitive gulls

Tall bike

Recycled recycling bike

Flying Flea inside the M-shed museum

@User14044's discarded hand cycle for when his butler couldn't be bothered to push him around in his bath chair

Dockside cranes

Restored steam crane

Cyclist-centre street furniture

Great busking with an oud. I bought his CD.

This sums it up!

It's a lovely city especially the harbourside. Glad you enjoyed my home city. You will need to visit the pie minister pie and mash shop on your next visit.

Nice one, Vern

Would you care to tell us about that n+1 you ordered? Woodrup 953 audax Rohloff 700c belt driven bike in a nice lime colour?

A cunning plan is evolving and like all of my best cunning plans the time scale is flexible and the economy of truthfulness is somewhat elastic.

that restored steam crane is a thing of beauty.

It's been many moons since I've visited Bristol, but it is a great city. A friend of mine used to live not far from 'Nelson Mandela House'; a little bit of Peckham in Brizzol

You can tell us - we can be trusted to keep a secret, Mrs V will never know

It involves bartering. I have something that they want and they have something that I want. You will all get something that you like.

Clear?

Mr R's sister lives in Brizzle. Great city! I wish we lived here (rather than just a mile down the road from his parents...)

"I want to live here" was repeated several times by my inner voice.

Recently spent the weekend there with my better half. Definitely worth it - lots to do.

@Fnaar misses bristols.
