Your message could save someone a wasted trip. Five years ago, I climbed up to the Red Lodge in Bristol only to find that it was closed that day. I had gone on the spur of the moment, so I hadn't checked the times of opening, but I was disappointed that I couldn't go in. The Red Lodge was a favourite place of mine to visit, when I was a child. That day, I was able to visit Bristol Museum, though, which was another link to my childhood as one of my earliest memories is of being taken to see Alfred the Gorilla, there. -- Josephine Jeremiah www.ianandjo.dsl.pipex.com ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BRISTOL_AND_SOMERSET-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
