News and views from north Bristol's urban village

Village News

A few bits and pieces that have caught my attention recently in and around the village:

  • noticed that large military transport plane flying low in large circles over north-west Bristol on Tuesday (?) Believe it was going through its test flights from Filton. 
  • Canford Park is full of young families on a sunny day. The village population is getting younger, in my observation. Maybe I'm just getting older. 
  • both of the village's primary schools (Elmlea Junior and Westbury C of E Primary) are applying to become academies this summer. More on that story here.  
  • far away (Cribbs causeway), was struck by the long queues forming outside the Apple store at the mall on Friday. Something about the launch of the iPad 2, or something.
