12th Feb - Wedding
Anniversary but it might have been an early (or late) Valentine – In Paris for
24 hours.
We set off with our
bus passes at ten to nine in the morning.
The bus obligingly waited a minute or
two (it was running ahead of schedule) to let us get on free on the stroke of nine.
It took us down to the Bristol City
Centre, from where we could walk across Queen's Square along the line of only
completely pedestrianised (until the 1980s) dual carriageway that I know, by
way of the baste bridge over the floating harbour, past St Mary's Redcliffe
(Queen Elizabeth's “finest Parish church in all England”) to Brunel's grand Temple
Meads Station.
