Every Second Sunday of the month - Bristol
« on: October 10, 2011, 09:29:59 AM »



The Avenue Car Club.

Second Sunday of each month. Queen Square, Bristol. More here.

Car porn of all ages! Could become a regular local opportunity for a Smart meet!
The Avenue Cafe, unfortunately, has gone, but excellent, reasonably-priced breakfasts, recommended at Che'z Cafe, very close by.

Me, too. I'll be there, with something. I wouldn't worry about flooding. Queen's Square is very large, magnificent venue!

Sounds odd, but i might pass the info along to my family in Bristol to take my Grandfather to have a walk around when there's a meet on! He would love the classics, he was a mechanical engineer and a draftsman for Rolls Royce in Bristol (worked on designing concorde) and a very keen car enthusiast, rebuilding and maintaining many classics in his time. He's in his mid 90s now but still nice and active so a short walk around somewhere like that would do him good and bring back memories.

I had a look through the photos and i am amazed, looks like an incredible meet, more like a car show!

If we do pop by when its on, I may try bring him along! My mother's side of my Family is from Bristol area so lots of people to see and stay with :)

He'd enjoy it! Plenty of park benches, if need be.
A couple of my neighbours worked on Concorde, too.

Maybe when we get back! As long as they let VW's in that is as our current 'family' car is a 1.8t beetle :)
