Fuck’s sake lads

Moodymann in November for a start

Not a lot though, good pubs still remarkably, but it feels carved out as a city due to high rents. Montpellier has changed. Bespoke butchers elsewhere, man buns, shocking trousers. Less of a local twang, eg how many are blow ins

Down to see the old Coil house in Weston near the burned out pier along its gigantic hill fort above (Weston is pretty run down) with D Fortune’s temple nearby, then Burnham on Sea for a beach walk and..

Took the in-laws mutt for a walk through town early this morning

There’s nothing there

A skate set up under the m32 flyover but closer to the city centre = dead apart from large numbers of homeless. J Da Silva’s choon shop is gone. Just early rising commuters and new red brick offices

All for £2k a month ish, fuck that for a city with the heart ripped out of it, increasingly survives culturally on past reputations and old Cotswold ££ - Gideon quota = HIGH
