bristol is very good for pubs (corination tap is a must if you enjoy cider) and their is a really good music (from folk, rock to dance) and arts scene (banksy). Loads of standard high street shopping as well as interesting inderpendant places. There is a rich maritime heritage and Bath is a 10 minute train ride away with beautiful georgian architecture and museums

Ah see your point. Probably alot more commercialised now aswell.
Correct. Some of the classic places (such as the Thekla) used to have someone of interest playing every week. I haven't heard of anyone playing there for about a year that's tickled my fancy. Having said that the Bristol music scene tends to go with the trends and dubstep just doesn't do it for me. However Tim, I know you crazy Dutch love a good all night pilled up hardcore event so you might have a great time!  |

We're looking for pubs, shops, perhaps a gig, historic buildings etc.
Im from a town called Heemskerk. 25 mins from Amsterdam city centre, 10 mins from the sea.
I support Ajax. Seasonticketholder as well. Grew up with it. My family originally is from Amsterdam.
Im not to fond with psv. Dislike everything about that club. Alltough the city of eindhoven is nice and the philips stadium also is not bad. why psv?
I live in Luxembourg and Eindhoven is the easiest Dutch city to get to. We've had a few good night outs in Eindhoven to try and go once a season. The main street in Eindhoven with all the bars is a particular favourite! |

One of those cool bohemian types then! My ex used to live a few roads behind the Hobgoblin, next to some park (can't remember the name of it). Used to get some bits from the co-op and while away a few afternoons there, good times! |

Bristols an amazing city, but most of the locals are really snobbish or just outright weird.

Unless you want to get accross the City quickly, educate your kids in a state school, buy a house, watch concerts in a big arena .......
