I'm in Bristol now, tomorrow and Sunday, what should I see, eat, do?
I don't have a bike atm but the pump track looks neat.

Go for a walk in Ashton Court Estate
Go for a walk up Brandon Hill and up the little tower
Go for a walk along the harbourside
Visit the SS great Britain if you like massive boats, is near the harbourside funnily enough
Wildlife Photographer of the year exhibition is now on at the M shed, also near the Harbourside
Catch the Grayson Perry exhibition at Arnolfini, again by the harbourside
While you're at the Harbourside, look out for Wapping Wharf, lots of interesting food and drink places
Take a wander up Stokes Croft and visit some of the cafes and shops and whatnot. There's a great synth shop and a good record shop nearby
Go to Clifton and look at the bridge
Visit any of the Dawkins pubs

there's a few for starters 🙂

Come into the office for a nice chat about the consumer contracts regulations and distance selling rules?

Steam trains are running on the Harborside this weekend.

The last weekend of the year for this.
The Bristol museum is good and free ...I don't consider myself a museum person but was impressed/interested!

TBF if a 48 hour bender is your bag, there are few better cities to indulge in it 😆

Walk a lap of the floating harbour. Let's you take in underfall yard (cool old school boatbuilding), ss Great Britain, Aardman animations, dock cranes, steam train, m shed, Arnolfini (with Grayson Perry, best exhibition they've ever had), nice waterfront boardwalk, plenty of bars, boats and history along the way.
