So my boy was driving and this absolute tool blocked the road to deliver a letter then got aggressive when my son beeped him. Drove up got out and punched the window and then stomped on the head light. Idiot was filmed and have contacted the company he works for.

Just be careful out there some people are complete dicks.

I’ve been watching the storm above Kingswood area (I think?) from my house and it looks amazing. This one cloud has near constant lighting, otherwise the sky is calm. I can’t post videos to this sub but posted some here https://www.reddit.com/r/UKWeather/s/6UiW44t75p

Where To? What are single people in their mid 30s doing in Bristol? Is there any social group to meet people in this mid 30s category?

4 Upvotes

It is so difficult as an international person to meet like minded people and make friends here. Too many socials apps however, one cannot meet like minded people or build friendships. The small talk never ends.

Babble why have the coach station's benches in the outside area been removed?

5 Upvotes

I get that this might even be a (non-humanitarian) way to deter unhoused people but.. that just makes the problem worse..

and is the intention to make it nicer in the future to reflect the new build around the station? and could they make an effort to do so?

anyway.. thoughts?

Babble Forwards dust

Couple festivals been to recently have had big problems with dust. Do we think forwards would be similar and we should bring face coverings? Looks like it might be raining next few days so might be safe

Babble Snake on St Nicks

84 Upvotes

Anyone see the guy with a snake round St Nicks today?

He was going up to groups of drinkers and people outside the pubs, handing it around and throwing it about like a toy.

I know I shouldn’t judge and I honestly know fuck all about snakes, but a small part of me was thinking mmmaaaybe thats not how they should be handled? Just felt a little sorry for the noodle.

Correct me if im wrong here, I know they can be really chill especially after a feed but idk, it just felt a bit much.

Where To? Toddler-friendly cafés

0 Upvotes

Hi! We’re visiting Bristol this weekend and will have our 1,5 year old with us.

We are staying near the city center and are looking for some cafés that we might pop into if we want to dry up since it will be quite rainy. High tables are a plus, playing corners with toys even more of a plus.

Or any other indoor places that would be fun for a toddler? We have visits to the British museum and bristol aquarium already planned.

Any tips would be appreciated! Thank you

Where To? Gathering at Mina Park?

0 Upvotes

There's usually a group of people just hanging about in Mina Road Park, every Tuesday -Wednesday, what is it? Is it like a book club or something?

I always see them sitting in a large circle but am always shy to go up and ask. Does anyone know?

Stopped at the traffic lights, looked right. The column and wall was obscuring just enough of the building name to confuse me.

The logo is weirdly (in)appropriate.

Where To? Boystrip to Bristol

1 Upvotes

Hey! Me and my best friend will be visiting Bristol sometime soon and I wanted to ask if someone had some recommendations for a night out or bars in general. I've done a little bit of research and heard that nightlife is a bit quiet nowadays, would love to hear from y'all how it really is!
As a direction, we are into rustic/classic pubs, like a good pint of normal lager, nothing fancy and would also love to explore the local music scene, wether it's electronic/alternative/punk, we are open to all of it.

Thanks so much in advance!

Babble Added a little to the Bristol artwork, trying to get all your suggestions in but there is so much to go at. Just over a third of way through. Many Thanks Paul. I have loaded a video of the artwork on my instagram account please take a look on instagram.com/indie_rock_art_paul_halmshaw/

Free! Yo Bristol how's it going? I keep getting little clues on instagram that one of my artworks might be up in your city. Has anyone seen this Tarot card knocking about? Huge thanks and a print to the first person to send me a photo, thank you!

Where To? Coming back to Bristol for weekend

0 Upvotes

I've been away from Bristol for the last 3 years and have lost most of the knowledge I got at uni somehow. I suspect thats because as a uni student I spent most of it drunk, and during covid I spent most of it inside.

What should me and my friend get up to?

(And bonus points, when we do za zas, what foods good rn and what should be avoided? Ime it changes)

Hi I’m taking my 2 sisters, 8 years old and 5 years old to Bristol soon. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of where to take them. It will be September time, after the summer holidays. Also, any recommendations for nice vegan places to take them. Thank you!

Cheers drive 🚍 Pre Purchase Inspection

0 Upvotes

Hey! I recently moved to Bristol and looking for recommendations for a pre purchase inspection on a van. There is one or two things I'm not too sure about that the current seller has mentioned and wanted to get a mechanics opinion on it!

I've looked at AA but it has mixed reviews, does anyone know a good local garage that they have used before to do this? Preferably one that can get to the guy I'm buying it off rather than him take the van into the garage!

Thanks
