Gloucester Road Shopping

I'm in Bristol at the moment and, of course, it is raining.  The original plan had been to go to the zoo, but there seemed little point given the weather.  Instead, Frances and I went shopping along the Gloucester Road, and here are some of the scenes we spotted.

A Walk along Gloucester Road

We'll start the post with a Missing Word Round, and prizes will be awarded for the most entertaining suggestion as to what might have been painted over here.

Gloucester Road in Bristol is supposedly the longest parade of independent shops in the country.  There was uproar in the area when Tesco tried (and succeeded) to install one of its "Express" stores, and the poster campaign against the development is still in evidence.

While waiting for Frances and Christopher to wake up on Saturday morning, I went for a walk along the road to see what I could find.

A bit like Cambridge's Mill Road on steroids...
