Bet they have great nights out though.

Disagree. I think Blackadder has totally stood the test of time.

How much was that?

Absolutely. Been flogging a dead horse for waaay too long now though.

Maybe we could've got Rene Gilmartin back for a few months on £2k/week again? Knows the club etc etc

2004 for da Baron was actually 1999!?

Loved Da Baron’s work. There was a textbook example by my old gaff on Palmyra and he once did a huge piece along the walkway on Gaol Ferry Bridge. Not to mention the classic “Lewis the Bad Off Baron” when he really was at the peak of his powers. BS3 legend

If anyone knows, Lewis da Baron should!

Agreed - the Mutton Rogan Josh is top drawer.

You'd think so eh, but some years ago, whilst walking across Ashton Park towards the ground, I had a call from my friend's wife. She asked if I could check if (insert name here) had his phone. So I asked him & he dug into his pockets and pulled out the TV Remote Control! True story & anyone who knows me will probably (a) remember it or (b) easily guess who it was!

I think part of the problem was that their Babestation subscription was inadvertently linked to all season tickets. Bit embarrassing for Wally.

Exactly the same here!

Now, after hours of workshops & brainstorming, cunningly re-branded as Huboo. Those crazy creative types eh!

Only the feckless son of a billionaire could claim that having a season ticket wasn't a luxury. Of course it is a luxury; a luxury that plenty of people I know cannot afford. And they're no less a supporter for not having one, either.

Bravo. An utterly fantastic word. I shall endeavour to use it wherever possible.

This is the Lansdown era though, it's tory (spit) style "ignore it & it will go away" whilst you spin your own narrative. If you remember there was a lot of negative feedback at the "Gold & Navy" top that Bristol Sport brought out across the rugby & football teams 6 or 7 (?) years ago.

No chance. They never get anything wrong. Criticism is never recognised nor replied to.

This will be the same Jon Lansdown who completely rebranded Bristol Rugby as Bristol Bears just because he likes the Chicago Bears, yeah?

They used to have a big picture of this hanging up in what was the Terrace (previously Quba Ice, now - I think - the Malago) on North St opposite the Hen & Chicken. Great picture.

Fair play that sounds like it must have been an amazing experience. Very hard work no doubt but I hope it left you some time to enjoy the slopes!? And the aprés ski too of course.

I'd rest up by the sound of it!

Couldn't resist going out yesterday whilst it was snowing - through Ashton Court - a bit daft as it was very slippery but I made it back unscathed!

Just a short stroll away for us, it's had several different iterations as a restaurant previously, I think one was called Howards. This one has probably been going for 18/24 months or so and I am definitely looking forward to going when a suitable occasion presents itself.
