    I can't plan that far ahead - I would most likely take the train although Bristol is only an hour away by car, I hate driving around the place plus I know I will get lost.

    Now then I don't normally do this kind of event so if I do go, please be gentle with me:D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Just doing some digging for you all. Obviously this is before quidco and its just the hotels I know the placements are. I bet you could get a b&b cheaper. Taxis to cribbs are about £6 on a Saturday. However I could get you there for free but cant get you back on Sunday for trains etc. Maybe a central hotel may work out cheaper?

    Cribbs premier inn ~ twin room 12th Sep ~ £56
    Central premier inn ~ twin room 12th Sep ~ £60

    Cribbs travel lodge ~ single room 12th Sep ~ from £29
    Central bristol travel lodge ~ anchor Road ~ single room 12th Sep ~ from £61

    The Marriot ~ Lower Castle Street ~ 2 queen beds/two adults 12th Sep ~ £63
    City inn bristol ~ double/2 adults 12th Sep ~ £69
