From the Colston hall - Face the centre with your back to the colston hall. You should see a Yate's wine bar on your left. Walk towards Yate's and in front following the road round to the left.
Keep on that side of the pavement and keep walking you should soon see a covered walkway with a few recriutment agencies and a hairdressers. Walk under neath the archway past the sugar loaves and the fish and chip shop (if you're hungry eat here - it's fab!) walk past the newsagents and underneath the next little walkway.
If you get lost ask any Bristol person where the Artichoke pub is.
Carry on past the statue of a man on his hourse and past the artichoke pub. Turn left at the next turning (where the traffic lights are) and cross over the road and walk past the pub (the white hart or something). Follow the road round to the right and you're in the bus station.
As for getting off on the bus - i would suggest the stop Almondsbury Hill (not sure how close that gets you) and sweet talking the bus driver into pulling over when you reach Woodhouse Park. If the bus driver doesn't know where Woodhouse Park is, ask him for the Scout Camp...He should at least be able to get you within walking distance. I would suggest taking someone number who will be there with a car just in case you end up somewhere a bit random.

we've taken the bus before right to the site to the busstop just by the petrol station, which is just by the little path down to the site (to the left of a rather nice house) on the opp side of the road and that leads if u follow it right to geraldine at the entrance.

Right, with ToF thrown into the bargain I think I'm pretty much set to get to Bristol. Haven't booked any tickets as yet but I'll do it soon
God knows what I'm gonna do for transport. Any southamptonites heading down Friday night have a spare space in their car?

Can you do a proper show, then a show specifically for hecklin' so that I don't spoil it for anybody?
