I though i might go to the karting and do my best to video some of it with my Digital Camera.
If someone has a proper video camera (Leighton?) I could use that instead. Then the horrific driving skills shown by all can be captured for posterity.

Just an FYI, there is a Greggs Baker shop about 100 metres up the road from the Karting place (assuming you're going to the same one as last time) for those who need a pick-me-up before the karting.
I am definitely up for an afternoon bevvie.

Just a heads up, Bristol Rovers are playing at home at 3pm on Saturday so best to stay clear of Gloucester Rd for the pre-drinkies.

Given where we will be eating i have been thinking about the route for our mini pub crawl. Now, given the number of locations I think we should go to, i think it'll have to be a 1-2 drink in each place rule until we reach a club. But for the follow Bristolians, i am thinking: - The Ram (for that 'murderer' connection) - but it's actually a decent pub
- Goldbrick House (no FCCUK trip would be complete without it)
- The Woods (another lively bar which has a decent outside area for the smokers and comfy chair upstairs if required)
- The Botanist (Trendy bar, a personal favourite)
- Magic Bar (just becuase we'll end up there at some point even if i didnt put it on the list!)
- Club - I'm thinking Poo Naa naas or MBargo.
I'm getting my haircut this evening so i'll ask the girl if there is anything special going on this saturday too.

I think we've tried to on both the last couple of occasions. The first time we had to put my boss in a cab first and then i think the night fell apart as people were taking photos of girls boobs in the queue whilst others were already inside, not sure.
The second time we didnt make it to a club, i dont think.

I should be around on Saturday now so should be able to catch the magical bus from Dundry down to town Doubt I'll make the karting (due to massive fund restrictions) But if there is availabilty at the meal/drinks then I should be able to do those if there's room for a newbie!

I have to say I won't be going to a club, too much standing around shouting instead of talking! I thought you'd be tearing up the dance floor John Travolta style Leighton?? FFS wish I could make this, sounds like its gonna be messy!!

Not sure about a club Saturday, I'm up for taking the real old mans ales and wine bars route, zero degrees, St Michaels Hill incorporating the Highbury Vaults and others? But, happy to discuss in the afternoon once we've all met up. And on that note, I reckon we should meet at the Dovecote, Dovecote pub for late lunch which serves good grub, we can all park at, and gives us easy access onwards to the karting.

The problem you have there Dan is that if we do it that way, we'll have a fleet of coops going to karting,then we need to be at Flavourz almost immediately after. We cant have a fleet of coops parked up in town and left over night with everyone then needing to get back to them in the morning (to find them keyed et al. I can obviously ferry 3 people back to mine after the karting and then we walk to Flavourz but it's still a 15 minute walk. As for old man pubs? I wouldn't bother coming out! My funds are limited and I don't want to use them up sitting in an old man pub like a bunch of retirees, just chatting the same stuff as we do on the forum. You might aswell just have everyone go home after the karting, get on their computers, open up a bottle of beer and get on the forum. Hows about you old codgers do that and Mario, Reubs and myself have a proper night out.

I'll probably be taking the Coupe down to town after karting and leaving it down there so I can take 3 others too.

IMO the best approach would be for those staying at Shay'Dans to all meet there, then people like James and Myself who are happy to give lifts, should go there, get as many people into as few as possible cars, then goto a pub between Dans and the karting place. Admittedly it probably wont be the nicest of places, looking at a straight line between southmead and avonmouth but it definitely would make more sense. Theres no point zig zaging up and down Bristol with lots of cars. Then we can head back toward town, i dunno, perhaps some would go with Leighton back to his and then share a cab to Flavourz, same for me if we really want to save time (rather than walk for 15 mins).
