UK Dreams Part 3-- Bristol
To my knowledge, there hasn't been a Bristol thread before on SSP... if so I couldn't locate it. I had a short time here, but was glad I got to visit this city. It lacks all of the "tourist polish" of other towns in the UK, but is still a great place to explore.

Nice photos. Bristol looks nice, has a very classic British small city feel to it.

Bristol is cockney for a woman's breasts.

Near the end of the tour there appears to be a pic of a public toilet. If that's true, it's the finest shitter I've ever seen.

Great looking city. Thanks!

Thanks everyone

The hills in Devon/Cornwall are even more dramatic. This is the Southwest of England... an area that we rarely see here on SSP
