St Werburgs, Bristol-yay or nay?

I might start saving for a shed:cool:

Well see I'm looking for a scare crow at the moment to see off this vandal pigeon. It's not a particularly dangerous pigeon and I could offer you accomodation in my shed. It's in hippy central st wergles, cockcrow distance from the farm and has real mud so you can set yourself apart from those middle class hippies. There's a nearby water trough and the shed's lovely apart from having no roof. And only three walls.
 
I told you someone would offer you shed space cyberfairy, and you get to have the privilege of being a resident scarecrow too.

Isn't it great. I imagine it'll only cost you £400 per month too. :D

I'm only up the road in horfield too, so I could pop down with a bit of tarpaulin to cover the roof.

It might cost you though. Market rates and all that, with a warm glowy feeling attached.

I think it's meant to be.......:D
 
The house didn't get given away, not enough entries. He lost four grand on the draw in the end what with his marketing expenses.

Just goes to show, no matter how much of a great deal it may seem, nobody's stupid enough to want to live in fucking Southmead :D

Oh, I dunno. A friend of mine has just bought a house there, shacked up with a woman he met in Lidl and now they're having a baby.

Not really a friend, we've never got on very well.

Are you a posh hippy? Then Montpellier is for you!

Full of trustafarians and people who think they're 'alternative' but are secretly raging capitalists.

What club was that?
 
We've decided we really don't want to live in city as still hemmed in as, even if feels like green oasis, still surrounded by suburbia. Still undecided. Mr Fairy wants a houseboat, I want a fuck off big mansion with a walled garden-neither of us have any money-this one could run and run.

Still its good to think about these things....


I was walking up to Ashley down the other day, thinking that if I had the money I'd love to live right by the farm in St Werburghs I love that view from Ashley down with the climbing centre surrounded by the allotments, reminds me of how happy I felt when i fist arrived 20 years ago:eek:
Masterdarkone deperately wants to live in St Werburghs:)

It is a lovely walk indeed and a lovely area there. If you found a nice black furry hooded cardie,it's mine-I dropped it there last week:rolleyes:
 
I lived in Ashley Down in Talgarth Rd till I was five, and me and my older brother spent a lot of time just running around the whole area, and it felt like stepping into another place inside the city. (We had a lot of freedom in retrospect, a lot more than most kids now I think).

So it's still a very magical place for me I guess, and I still walk through it a lot.

PS: discarded cardies, kids gloves, etc, tend to get hung on nearby posts for recollection next time you walk through, unless it's an especially nice scarf or something, then it's finders keepers. :)

i always thought he'd said it was the moon club but someones told me different since. this was in 1990 and not something id want to relive. I think it was only quick thinking and wit which stopped me getting killed and i hadnt done fuck all apart from walk in and look around.
my sister had her bag snatched from out of her glovebox in bristol.
my ex dealer was nearly killed there too by a crowd of guys with baseball bats.
my brother in law is permanently paralysed after getting trashed by an 11 year old girl with a baseball bat.
i know that people love living there but its not for me.
i prefer smaller towns where you pretty much know who youre dealing with.
 
SOrry, not read all this thread, but if you live in a 'nice' bit of bath I worry you might hate st w.

You have to accept inner city living for what it is. A certain amount of streetwiseness, savvy and grit is often need.

Ask yourself this, where you live now do you often see prostitution / drug dealing / drunks / used condoms / syringes / people pissing in public / fights / helicopters / car chases / screaming at night ect ect.

These things may not happen ofen but living in st w close to st p it is likely.
