A fine day out


Spent an enjoyable day in Bristol yesterday, taking the (packed!) train in the morning from Reading we arrived around midday just in time for some lunch! So, we walked over to Finzels Reach and the LHG (Left Handed Giant) taproom for some Mission pizza and locally brewed LHG beer (see above), both completely delicious! After lunch we did some shopping and browsing followed by a walk up the hill towards the University and the Art museum where we had tickets to see the Grayson Perry Art Club exhibition. On the way we passed by the empty "Colston" plinth, I snapped a quick picture for posterity.



The exhibition was great, very thought provoking, reminding us of how we all felt during the height of the lockdown. It's amazing how creative some people are, we were very jealous! After a good look around the museum we necked a quick cup of coffee and had sit down, then we hot footed it over to the Temple Meads station and caught the 5:30 pm train back East, arriving home around seven. All in all, a fine day out.
