Lots of productions are filmed in Bristol. It would take too long to name them all - I've got a showing of the original Mr Bean to get to! Thanks for the welcome. I get my stuff from a friend in London usually, but alas his friend has... Dried up? lol I really have no idea where to start looking for a dealer now. Forums was a very long shot lol Ohh Mr Bean's started. Tom.
You dont live in hackney right now do you - toward clapton ? I know someone who is moving to Bristol I mean WTF is this moving to bristol thing about? is there something going on there? Last time I checked the place out, it was full of cliche'd west country boys who drink scrumpy cider and and say "roit laarrrts go dewn the old barley mo pub and get tarnked op and the go arrrv a foit with some other tarsers"
By cliched west country boys, do you mean chavs? Or perhaps white trash? Is that racist? You didn't go to an area called "Southmead" did you? lol I've always felt that Bristol is very politically conscious city; the graffiti is certainly very beautifully done, in places like Portsmouth (I go to university there) you get "BUM" written on telephone exchanges :/ I once saw this old white guy sitting at a bench in my park smoking _something_, a few mins later this old black guy comes along and sits on a bench a little way from him... After about 5mins or so, the black guy gets up and starts talking to the white guy, the white guy offers him his "roll up cigarette" and they just sit there talking and sharing this... Well I'll just say it: Joint. It made me feel rather good for some reason.
could have been - second time I ever went to glastonbury I thumbed it and these right wankers from bristol picked me up - all drinking cider then they drove round in this van for about 3/4 of an hour and put me down about 10 minutes further back from where they picked me up. So yeah I think it was the poor side of town over by the M4 or M5 that side fackin tossers live there. On the way back from another glasto a few years later get right on the outskirts of Bristol and 3 twats start asking me if I got any dope, so I say I smoked it all and then they start trying to steel my fucking bags so I kicked one of em in the shins hard as I could and legged it as fast as I could across 4 lanes of a busy dual carriageway they didnt follow as I almost got hit by a car in the 3rd lane as I jumped the barrier
What the hell?? How old are you Ronald? You sound crazy - Like a proper hippy heh heh nice... Is it true the best people for hitch hikers are truckers? Cheers for the welcome. Where are you from?

Not yet dear boy not yet. I'm thinking of heading down there one day, I'm saving a stash for the occasion...so far I've managed to raise about £20 so who knows, I could be there very soon! Welcome to the forums by the way. You have as many posts as you have years...crazy times man!
I'm kind of in Bristol. I mean I'm in Cheltenham. But it's the same thing innit. Just with a giant rubbish dump called Gloucester inbetween
Bristol urban area 2007 estimated population 551066 surprised you havnt seen any people...why would you want to move somewhere that your not sure is inhabited?
