Temple meads station. In fact, you might even find a vacant bench there too for good cheap nights kip.

Whatson - a few places you can stay in Bristol, but i recommend the Full Moon. Backpackers type sleeping arrangements, but clean and tidy and well managed with a great bar with good food too. I drink in there fairly often after work and all the people stying there seem to be well happy with it... and for £16 a night, you cant go wrong.

It is a little way from the Tobacco Factory, but Im sure Logical1 will be able to advise you of closer (if more expensive!) alternatives.

Hope this helps!

Fullmoon is now full, we reserved all 64 beds but they'venowall gone, just trying to work on a deal with another hotel so watch this space... Alternatively, search laterooms.com the postcode for the tobacco factory is BS3 1TF...

Hey Guy, I am in Bath apparently. Sounds great. Its a really exclusive area and I have loads of space. I am bringing a mega phone so my artistic tantrums can still be heard in Bristol.

In truth I am not sure. I have been told but I don't want to ask again in case I get told off.

Looking forward to it though. Some of the other artists look great.

First pint of smiles is on me though dude!

[optiknerve]

Nice mate!!

See you next weekend :-)

[schlomo]

nice! loving the colours guys, looks wicked.

Very interesting write up in the Bristol Venue well worth a read

[My Name is Frank]

Gotta say chaps, we're really looking forward to our first visit to Brizzle. Especially with the lure of supping a few Milk Stouts. Gonna be good to put faces to names. We'll be the ones at the bar with London accents, covered in paint (with milk tashes). Bring it on!!

Went to Tobacco Factory couple of nights ago. Some of the work inside has gone up already. Nearly fell off my chair when I saw this one on the wall.....



Until I got up close and saw it read... 'The Art Tart'!

Terrible iPhone pic I know, but to be fair, it actually looks bloody nice in reality. I'm just missing the point though really!

[jellya]

I think I read somewhere that in the past she used to be employed to knock these out for Hirst.

Only one more - of a DOC, but I was gonna keep it secret cause I want to buy it!! My wife fell in love with it straight away....



Sorry, pic does nothing for it, but it really is so beautiful. The palette of colours is awesome, I much prefer this darker-looking side to DOC's work that his red/orange work, which I also really love btw!

Top work DOC!
