Troy Atkinson A boy died after he was run over in Bristol City Centre. A lot of his friends and family have left comments on thisisbristol - including his mum who called him her "Creme Egg"! Hard on the outside but soft in the centre. I know it is really wrong, but that just conjures up the image of the new creme egg adverts!

Looks like you have to be careful where you go for a drink in Bristol! This guy who intervened between a rowing couple was punched and then kicked in the head. He died in hospital!

oh my god! I have heard it all now! A man had sex with a dog!
Can you believe that someone would stoop so low!

Bristol legend Mark Regan plays his final competitive match tonight at Leicester. It's sad day for rugby fans everywhere - but good news for front rows everywhere!

We are always complaing about the bad behaviour of our youth in society. Well, this story shows that even suposed responsible members of the community are not setting a good example.
Feast your eyes on this badly behaved copper!

So tobacco and alcohol duties are going up again! I wonder if it will stop people smoking and binge drinking... we'll see.

So, I read that Bristol City football club may get its new stadium with the news that the chairman of the club has sold £47million of his shares in Hargreaves Lansdown to help the cause.
Not sure if it is the place to host the World Cup fixtures in 2018 but I'll be keeping an eye on the progress.

Hygiene has gone down the pan in Bristol hospitals

Having been to Bristol's Southmead Hospital myself, I am glad to see that I am not the only person who has complained about the standard of hygiene in the toilets. Two ladies have also noticed the standard is not up to scratch - is this the norm now for hospital toilets across the UK?

The big traffic debate continues!
Bus fares in the Bristol area are too high and must be lowered to get more drivers out of their cars, according to two city MPs. Interesting debate going on about Bristol First buses and other modes of transport in the city.

Famous faces around Bristol

Hi,

I thought I would start my first post off with a bit of celebrity spotting!
I saw TV presenter Monty Halls running around Ashton Court with a dolphin on his back! He was being filmed too! I run half marathons - couldn't imagine doing a full marathon - with or without a big fish on my back! Yes, I know dolphins are mammals, but it doesn't read as well!
