Gibbo Posted June 19, 2012 Share #1 Posted June 19, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Shall we? Following on from the sucess of our meet at the end of April I was wondering if folks would like to give it another go. One thing that stood out like a sore thumbs last time was that there is a lot to see in this city. I was thinking that the first or second weekend in September whilst, hopefully, the weather is still on our side. So that will be either the 1st or the 8th Sept. Neither date is cast in stone so if anyone has another preference that is more suitable to the group then fire away! Last time we had seven of us in attendance which would seem to be an easy record to beat Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share #5 Posted June 24, 2012 We don't seem to be summoning too much interest at this stage. Plenty of people reading the thread but very few replies Have we picked a bad time for people? If so, speak up please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeingeye Posted July 7, 2012 Share #13 Posted July 7, 2012 Gibbo I enjoyed the last meet and would be interested in a return visit. Do you have any suggestions for places we could visit this time? Is the area around the SS Great Britain of interest, for example? Regards Mike 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Mike Its nice to walk along the Waterfront past M Shed (the old Industrial Museum) and then make your way along past the Great Britain, and the Mathew if shes in, to the Cumberland Basin. Some quite nice stop off points there and also excellent views of the Clifton Skyline. Best wishes Mike B:) 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share #15 Posted July 14, 2012 As a starter I suggest that we meet up at the Mud Dock again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomv Posted July 18, 2012 Share #16 Posted July 18, 2012 What date and time? Saturday 8 September? Late in the morning? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share #17 Posted July 19, 2012 OK, so far the suggestion is that we meet up at the Mud Dock, as we did in April, on Saturday 8th September, between 10am and 11am for coffee. Here's a link to the Mud Dock's website: Mud Dock : Caf We found that the car park there is a very reasonable price per day and it is also quite convenient for Bristol Temple Meads Railway Station. It might be nice to head off in a different direction to last time with an aim to take in the SS Great Britain, Millenium Square and other sites along the harbour. We may end up at some point in the Pump House pub as suggested last time to rest our weary feet 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanetomlane Posted July 23, 2012 Share #18 Posted July 23, 2012 Look's like we're free on either date and so would be interested. ___________________ Regards, Tom 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill Posted August 15, 2012 Share #20 Posted August 15, 2012 I won't be able to make it, I'm afraid. Stuff going on at the moment requires my full attention at around that time :( Regards, Bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
