Captain Gas is lurking in one of the cubicles. What you can't see is the black eye the horse is displaying. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanjita Posted July 27, 2023 Report Share Posted July 27, 2023 I phoned Heart FM today, to enter their mystery prize competition. The presenter answered and said, "Congratulations on being our first caller, all you need to do is answer the following question correctly, to win our Mystery Grand Star Prize' "Thats Fantastic!" I called out in delight. "Feel Confident?" The presenter asked, "It's a Geography Question." "Well, I've got a degree in Geography from Salford University," | proudly replied, "and I've taught Geography to A level students for the last 10 vears" "Ok then, to win our grand prize of 2 VIP tickets to a Bristol Rovers game and to meet the players after the game, what is the capital of France?" "Bradford", I replied. 17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed a few hundred yards from filton Ave on muller rd , someone has depicted a wildlife scene on a long garden wall . It’s a very nice piece of art to be fair . I don’t think it will last though as part of the way through it is a very large robin . How long before that gets defaced. I can hear them now as they pass the wildlife scene. 'I bet that was painted by some Gurt Ted coz they know we's cumin for em'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackofromSanJavier Posted July 27, 2023 Report Share Posted July 27, 2023 I sort of stopped looking at the objections as they are all quite commonly based on the family club not consulting with the residents, so I've been enjoying those entries supporting the new stand.

The increased in fans numbers will have a positive impact on local businesses bringing in more money. The stadium has had 12000 fans in the recent past and the new temporary stand will be of significant benefit to the neighbours compared to previous temporary stand. Bristol Rovers do lots to support local communities from children to OAPs. I fully support this application 12000 fans.........Eh??????

You’re not the dog walker who goes on about more horse punching and the now homeless tits scaring the newts away? Got to go some to beat the planning application for a ‘thatched roof’ on one of the classic, balconied Georgian terraced houses in Clifton in giving planning staff a laugh, but good effort.
