    But it's still Bristol....
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

    Nowt wrong with Brizzo. I will be moving back down there myself in a couple of years, I think it's great there.
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

      You contracted much in Bristol before? How long since you were there last? WMPS - it is a brilliant city. I moved out of Bristol four years ago and would happily move back there!

      Well done on the new contract BTW

        It's pronounced Brizzil and consists of people who say 'ooo ahhh' a lot. It's like a rich mans Norfolk.

          I contracted (C#) for a bit in Bristol, yes that made me qualify for CUK board membership and the dirt I got on admin there keeps me from being banned ever since

            Did the Brizzle thing for 18 months (2006/7 I think), Monday to Thursday, with Fridays WFH.

            Quite liked the place. Plenty of good places to eat, decent pubs and not bad 'gentlemans entertainment'.

            Only downside was the ******* Marriot.

              I contracted in Bristol at OD2 (which was bought by Loudeye, which was then bought be Nokia). I likes it there.

                    I was at Orange for several months back in c 2000, at Aztec Plaza near the motorway.

                    Stayed in a grotty house, and didn't go out much.
