These usually head through Temple Meads on the centre road beneath the canopy after passing arson St. and Bedminster.

Edit: Parson St...or maybe what I put is more fitting?

Ooooh, tasty! I might be able to get a shot of this on my way home from work.

And yes, arson street suits it better, although shorten it again for an even better description! I passed Bartlett's Bridge while out and about today. It's still in a half-finished, half-falling-down condition. And it looks like it's been set on fire once or twice.

It's scandalous that things like this are allowed to happen. Where's the Bristol Evening Post when you need them? I suppose a little kid will have to fall off the currently unprotected end of the bridge before someone remembers they've had a couple of grands worth of public money and are supposed to be putting it right.

Did you get a picture or are you just going to present me with a feeble excuse?

I hung around until I figured I could see (in the distance) smoke rising from my tea, but alas all that passed was a Voyager.
