Title: Queen's Square Sunday morning meet 8th November
Post by: Moleman on 01, November, 2015, 07:55:21 PM
This is a really good chance to meet up with car enthusiasts from all over Bristol. it is held on the Sunday morning from about 9am at Queen Square, Bristol, City of Bristol BS1 4QS

We are now supporting the Avenue Driver's Club in their efforts to sustain this magnificent free public event and thanks to all who have signed up (for free)  If you haven't follow this link to do so.

http://www.avenuedriversclub.co.uk/joinus.html

I know we are always immaculately behaved but I am going to ask three things.  We wish to make a positive impact on the Square and for Bristol as a whole. 
(a) If you see some litter could you pick it up and put it in the bins (not ours but we will help)
(b) If somebody does make noise, very politely explain the situation to them so that the show is not banned as a result - that also applies to burning rubber and the like
(c) Invite as many members of the public as possible to enjoy this benefit for Bristol

So this is a great venue with a good atmosphere so who is up for it?

This one is getting really popular now so it is best to get there early if you can. Though we will be giving this one a little review soon so come along & see what you think?  :)

I won't be there as I will be at the classic vehicle restoration show but you guys can do both if you like.  :)
So who else is up for this?  :)

I expect I'll pop down for a bacon roll and a cuppa. Hopefully it won't need to be quite so early now the clocks have changed! Will probably leave Yate at around 8.00.

Armastice Day this Sunday so please tell others (as we are civil minded chaps) no revving of  engines this week. Why not go to the square , park up, and then wander around to the centre and join in the service.
Even if you ain't  religious it's a wonderfull atmosphere and great to see all ages and all types join in a very humbling hour.
Not much to ask really is it. :) :) :)

Thanks for the heads up on that one mate. I have found it's normally the super cars that do the loud revving.  ::)
Not sure about what roads may be closed around town then people.  :)

Most likely just the centre I would think Colin. And even that may be open in parts. I seem to recall driving through it last year. I came haring round the bend into the centre in the Tiger with the loudest exhaust in the world (b4 the 20mph limit) only to run into about ten coppers in uniform walking to attend the service who all turned and gave me the evil eye! I slowed down very quickly!!  :-[

Yes I turned up the square was full with a lot of cars parked on the kirb, the police were also patrolling as part of the remembrance day, which I went over to and watched the parade, had to put the roof up though as it went dark on the way home.
