Think I'd better get the ball rolling.

First pic is bay of Sorrento, Italy from our hotel a few years ago.



Second is sax player Ollie Moore from legendary band PigBag at the Jazz Club also from a few years ago.

They were taken on my old phone so not brilliant quality I'm afraid :(

Another to make up the numbers:





These are the deserted scenery storage bays round the back of TV Centre, taken during last June's "super moon".




And from a couple of months earlier, the "South Platform" SNG dishes, also at TV Centre.

Haha, I recognised it as well ^^

Good to see some brizzle folks around - as much as I may be losing some freedom (moving back in with my parents), I'm looking forward to moving back... and the money saving...

I'm originally from Long Ashton before moving into Clifton. I'm now in Portsmouth but my mum's still in Clifton, so I'd caught the train to and from Temple Meads many times before I got the bike.
