Rocker Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Thanks to all who attended our March date @ The Mothers Ruin - we all had a great time & will be back there in May. For our next gig we return to The Thunderbolt, and we welcome back the amazing John Stapleton as our guest DJ. The Thunderbolt is a friendly, intimate pub-sized venue with an excellent real ale bar at pub prices and of course a dancefloor - it's on The Bath Road, a ten minute walk from Temple Meads Station. It's on Saturday April 18th - find the event listing here. Post here to let us know you're coming! Requests welcome! Cheers! Rocker Link to comment

Ian Williams Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Hi Ian, Sorry the delay - been away for a few days. Try laterooms.com for a few - this is the cheapest hotel I can find or try b and b's via online The Clifton Hotel 2Hotel AA AssessedRatings explainedSt Pauls Road Clifton, Bristol, BS8 1LX This one is £52 and about a £2 bus ride via temple meads and an £6 taxi ride to the venue. Or try The Avonside Guest House via the internet - rooms at £35 quite close to the train station and our night. Good luck Link to comment
