September Queens Square

[Bulldog Bri]

Just thought I'd point this out. The next Queens Square meeting will clash with the Bristol Half Marathon and looking at the route there's not really any chance cars are going to be allowed in to the square as the runners will be going through mid morning.

Anyone want to meet up somewhere else for the morning? Out of town?

Thanks for the heads up Bri.

Any Suggestions to where we could go?

I have just emailed Tony at the ADC to ask if it is on or off.

Best to find out for sure 1st I would think.

I would say the Downs but I have no idea where the marathon route goes and they may well be up there too!

How about Portland Square or Brunswick Square? Both have a nice 'parky' bit in the middle and parking around the perimeter. Brunswick with marked out parking bays and a cafe close by, though I cant see it being open on a Sunday morning.

Trouble is, the marathon watchers will know that and most parking will be spoken for.
Better off out of town as we wont know where we can and cannot drive let alone park.

Here's a few:

Cheddar Gorge
Northey Arms Box as recently discussed - Box, SN13 8AE
The Windmill on Nore Road overlooking the estuary at Clevedon - big car park good views
Brunch at the Royal Inn Portishead- spectacular estuary views and over the marina - big car-park
The Famous corner cafe monster breakfast the Corner Cafe Portishead see the video!

Or for more class the Shelsley Walsh Classic car Breakfast - Sept 6th - I am already going to that.

Current word from Tony at the ADC is that the event will take place the Sunday after so you may wish to factor that in. That is not set in stone yet though.
