    Your typo adds a whole new level of potential awkwardness! Grope Compare was trending yesterday

    Our Crowds

    Absolutely. All very proud. And yes. What a waste of the work post-Petty that the trust put in with the club. Along with greater success (and entertainment in the field). Feels like we are at best stuck or worse creeping backwards. It's a crying shame.

    Our Crowds

    Imagine that. The trust did so much to promote the club to kids pre-PL. Got a great photo from the Evening Post of my daughter with her face painted on one of the many kids for a quid games. Taken by Phil S I believe. She starts as a nurse in PICU at Bristol next week!

    Our Crowds

    Too easy to go for a big catering firm to serve rubbish for big shared profit. Look at Bristol City/Bears loads of local food and companies have outlets- Thatcher's, Jolly Hog, Bristol Beer Co. Stalls with loaded fries, local hot dogs, curry goat. Bristol Bears have won nothing yet get an...

    Winter fuel allowance could be removed for most pensioners to pay for triple lock

    Only one of the cabinet was educated privately-perhaps surprisingly Lou Haigh, though obviously Hilary Benn and Ed Miliband hardly come from 'usual' backgrounds. It does suggest people with ability from 'normal' backgrounds rather than Eton-educated. I would agree the lack of long-term...

    Winter fuel allowance could be removed for most pensioners to pay for triple lock

    I would liked to have retained Child Benefit. Nice few extra quid a month. But it rightly was means tested and I earn enough that it was not essential for me and my family. Yes, state pensions are low in the UK, but 'we' made the choice of a low tax society compared to similar countries in...

    Dave Grohl

    Easy to say you would not, but reality is different. At least he's "'fessed up" unlike Tom Jones or Boris Johnson. Dirty Dave!

    I’m pleased to say my son is starting a BSc In Games Technology at UWE in a week. To overcome ASD challenges to do this makes me so proud of him. And his sister who overcame anxiety as a teenager to complete her nursing degree and start in paediatric intensive care at Bristol Children’s next...

    Cruise Holidays

    We just did the Fjords with P & O and was great. If you want a Benidorm-style experience it's there but if you want quiet civilisation it's also there. Modern ships are so large they can cater to multiple tastes. The Fjords and indeed Stavanger are great. A damp day in Haugesund was about as...

    Cruise Holidays

    Gerainger is pretty much no go for cruise ships after this year-essentially only electric or liquid gas powered. P & O have used nearby Hellesylt this year, but changing to visit Flam instead. Gerainger is stunningly pretty though.

    The Film A Bridge to Far

    My grandfather was involved (sarge in the Sherwood Foresters) in 'Market Garden' the operation to take the bridges with Arnhem being the bridge 'too' far. The supply line was very stretched and substantial pockets of the Wehrmacht remained between the receiving infantry and mechanised forces to...

    It's been far too long chaps....

    Fits with a city of seafaring to the east (hence Lorient from L'Orient) and fishing. A few Breton triskells, flags and ermine. Bonkers.

    Biden To Step Aside? 🤷🏻‍♂️

    In the flesh so to speak. But then I am an academic and we are woke lefties running camps to Corrupt the young. Yes, he certainly went full MAGA.
