Christmas in Bristol





After 3 days home alone for Christmas, we ventured to Bristol on the same day that everyone else was travelling on the motorways. As such, it took us 4.5 hours to get to Bristol but there was a plus side, 23 Eddie Stobarts on the road, including a car transporters and 2 biomass trucks. We had a weekend of meeting friends and family which started with cold meat and chips with mum (Taditional Shackell boxing day lunch). Then coffee with Norma, coffee with Ruth, taking Olivia and Caitlin to lunch where we met Mum, Chris and Jo, then Indian with Mum and Dad! What a day of reunions! Then on the Sunday, we had a walk at Leigh Woods with Jen, Jemma and Billy. Aunty, Cous Cous and Tia. Fran and Kat. Mum, Liv and Caitlin. Every other dog owner in Bristol had the self same idea, there were dogs off the lead everywhere! A lovely muddy walk catching up.

A great Christmas in Bristol, but gosh we are looking forward to fruit and veg again.
