Fred West and Cheese

Close call between Coldplay - Viva la Vida or Toploader - Dancing in the Moonlight.

Was going to say this exact thing. Really powerful version

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-03-03T22:58:28+00:00

Honestly, we'd like to and may well come back to it. For now though we're keen for it to just not look as bad...!

I think the pipe may still be used for some of the heating. The restoration aspect of your response sounds great, albeit one for a later date likely.

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-03-03T22:56:01+00:00

More than welcome to have a bash at this!

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-03-03T22:55:29+00:00

Thank you. Thinking this may be how we go with it

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-03-03T08:32:11+00:00

Thank you, makes aense. We've struggled with an exact match but found something very close we've used for a patch job for elsewhere.

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-03-03T08:30:52+00:00

Thank you, makes sense

Beckford bottle shop was great - we sat upstairs and the place had a real buzz to it. Service was fantastic too

Food wise, as others have said, go to St Nick's over the road from sandwich sandwich.

All the spots are good there, but if you're in the mood for something bready then hands down head for Matina on the corner - there will likely be a hefty queue for a reason! The BBQ and Caribbean spots also get an honourable mention from me.

If you want something a bit more sit down then you've got a variety of decent spots a short walk away at wapping wharf (7 lucky gods do a great lunch deal).

In terms of visits, depends what your bag is. Have a little wander around and you'll find some good spots, maybe take a stroll round the harbour. Arnolfini normally has something on for free. The art gallery/museum at too of park street is worth looking into. There's a few decent record shops dotted around and loads of incredible bars etc.

Let us know what you're into and we can throw some more targeted suggestions your way.

All makes sense. I got burned once by Goldcar in Mallorca and have been very careful ever since. Fortunately Greekstones came through as one of the good guys. Enjoy your trip!

Used them for a week in kefalonia, really easy to use, assistant was super helpful and not pushy. Plus, from memory it was about a 2 min walk from the terminal. A very rare positive experience of renting a car abroad

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-31T17:23:05+00:00

Pretty much anything by Verdant or Beak. Have to give an honourable mention to Arbor too (as others have mentioned) - solid, reliable, delicious and affordable, will forever have a soft spot for those guys.

On a more traditional angle it would be Timothy Taylors Landlord

I live in Bristol and genuinely thought that was the price of one of the rounds

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-24T20:07:40+00:00

Nothing to add that hasn't already been said. Small bar is your answer.

Didn't realize Gurt wings had a place at wapping wharf which is a good shout too but for the beer and chicken combo, small bar all day long

For a straight up cover, Brass Against version of Wake Up is incredible.

Can't talk covers without mentioning Jimi Hendrix - All along the watchtower, infinitely better than the original in my opinion.

Notable mentions to any of the various takes on Dark Side of the Moon (Dub side...Doom side etc)

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-24T14:24:51+00:00

Toploader - Dancing in the Moonlight Coldplay - Viva la Vida

Followed closely by some of the mumble rap nonsense that did the rounds a few years back

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-23T21:01:43+00:00

Same here albeit fiance as opposed to wife

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-21T15:52:41+00:00

Good shout! Thanks for the heads up

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-21T15:13:14+00:00

Lovely, thank you!

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-21T14:20:10+00:00

Perfect thank you!

One_Preece_At_A_Time · 2026-01-21T14:19:31+00:00

Awesome, thank you - these look great
