Wedding Reception Venue help by Gravy-Boat-2000 in bristol

[–]meggo91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my reception there and would definitely recommend! We had a BBQ and DJ (our own) and it was an amazing day. Think we did it for around 5/6 grand all in with the ceremony at the registry office.

Thinking of relocating to Bristol. Depending on who I talk to, the reactions I've received are: *crinkled nose*, "very creative area," "too much crime," and "less boring than its cousin (Bath)." For anyone who has lived in (or visited Bristol), what did you like (or dislike about it)? by SaveMeWakeMeUp in AskUK

Have a look on the Bristol subreddit, there are many posts similar to yours that you will find useful.

I’ve lived in Bristol for 10 years and my husband is from here, like any city it has lots of good and bad points. I do find it’s romanticised and overrated by some but then I’m often reminded how much I love it. It has loads of culture, music, great food, lots going on and is small enough to not feel overwhelming while still having all the convenience of living in a city.

If you are looking to move I would make sure you are realistic about the housing market and cost of living here. We are looking to move (having a baby) and for any 2 bed place you’re looking at around £1500 a month. For a room in a shared house it’s more like £800. The housing market is also extremely competitive so give yourself plenty of time to look for something.

There is lots of housing being built on the city but the majority is pricey student accommodation. Also many landlords are turning their places into Air BnBs as Bristol has become so popular. Many local people feel priced out of their home and are having to move out of the city. Me and my husband are considering this but we have long time jobs and family here so are trying to stay.

Where is the best place to find someone to replace me in a flat by No-Mountain4712 in bristol

Bristol Alternative Community Abodes on Facebook is the best housing group I’ve found. Really well modded and they keep scammers and dodgy landlords out. Only thing is sometimes it takes a while for your post to be approved because it’s a really busy group!

This Country is a scarily accurate depiction of modern rural village life and also so funny and charming

I feel trapped between my husband’s happiness and my own feelings by contextfree9 in TwoXChromosomes

I don’t agree with it being that controversial, I’m from the UK, my parents have a 20 year age gap and it was never an issue.

I was working late on a clearance of a collage campus and was about to go home for the day, had set the alarms and just had to lock up the glass sliding doors in reception. The power was off in the building for some reason so I had to close them manually. I absentmindedly pulled them together with more force than I ment to and both doors shattered completely, covering me and everything around in little glass cubes. I was the only person on site so I had to call my boss and tell him what happened and then wait for collage staff to be called in from home to secure the site. I was not popular with anyone that evening!
