Terrorists in sunny Brissol!

[Rusty]

Don't know how many have seen this story on the news or heard it on the radio but here's a link to the BBC website.

Anyhoo, I woke to an abusive text from a friend about a terrorist in Westbury-on-Trym in Bristol and thought that said friend was 'having a laugh'. It's a pretty quiet suburb of sunny Brissol* (*slighly overcast today) and just so happens to be where I lives to... so I decided to have a little peak on the BBC website to see which part of the aforementioned leafy suburb had been affected... I looked up the road name on Google Maps and to my suprise and amusement found that it was only up the road from me

So being the inquisitive chappy that I am I took a little walk to check that it wasn't an April Fool joke that had slipped a week or 2... and it wasn't!

No way, doesnt look like the Combe paddock i know! im at the Achedemy in Bristol centre tommorrow night as well..best take my shin pads.

I'd take your Riot Gear...

Going to go and pap some more shots, news and satelite vans have been driving past my house all morning and there are Police walking the streets... its like Bobbies are back on the beat!

The Southmead Star (aka police helicopter) has been making a lot of noise overhead too...

just saw it on the news...small World

[Rusty]

I was suprised to see it had made national news but international news is pretty cool if you know what I mean...

[lagomike]

wow small world! isnt too far away

[Laurel]

No way!! I KNEW it!!!

All those days I'd walk home from clifton high and got followed by supicious looking men and just thought I was being paranoid!! Oh dear! I mean...Oooh Aaaargh! (said in real pirate-bristolian fashion) *lol*

That's a bit freaky though.

[Rusty]

Clifton High?! I went to Clifton College!

Mind you they've had Al Quaeda in Glozzar for a while now anyway so you should be used to it!

[Laurel]

No way!!! lol oh you went to the poncey school, (mind you, I guess you couldn't exactly go to Clifton GIRLS school, lol) At least you didn't go to QEH!!! (I knew some WEIRD guys from QEH)

Al Quaeda in Gloucester? Nah, he stayed for a while but the floods and constant rain put him off. He realised life in the desert is much better for his tan.

[Acidburn]

Lol I work with a few people that i'd consider suspicious, maybe I should drop some info to the fuzz

[Rusty]

Poncey school indeed... pah! I didn't go to QEH but I went to sixth form at BGS. Not quite as bad cos we had girls there but you're right, QEH did have some interesting characters!

Acid, sounds like you're a one-man-CTU-Jack-Bauer-type!

[Laurel]

The BGS kids seemed more down-to-earth than some of them others!

Thought girlies went to Clifton College too? Or were you referring to QEH? Saint Ursulas (okay cant spell to save my life) was supposed to be mixed but there was like...2 guys in each year. JOKE.

And to think, terrorists amongst all these schools!! - speaking of which, I still cant find anything on the news about it though.

[Laurel]

*shakes head sadly* I'm too blonde sometimes....
