I’m saying that if you want to enjoy a city you should find things that you enjoy to do there. If you just show up it’s not surprising that you’ll be unimpressed.

I guess? Seems like a concert for example would be just as fun in a smaller rural venue than a gigantic urban one. I would enjoy the activity itself without regard of the location. If the city is to be impressive should it not stand on its own?

No, that’s what I’m saying. That’s not the point of it. All the buildings aren’t just for show. They’re all functional.

I live in Bath, so quite a bit smaller than Bristol, but I really apprecaite the fact that we can be in the city centre in half an hour, or in the countryside in 15 minutes. If I didn't live in Bath I'd probably live in Bristol, it's a great city. And I absolutely agree that it's kind of the perfect size for a metropolitan area. I think a lot of London is saved by having so many parks, and so many large parks and com…

As a fellow Bath resident I had to see if I recognised the name (it's a small place) and turns out we have worked at the same place in Bath (although many years apart!) Bathcamp caught my eye, may look into attending when it next comes round :)

I've worked at a lot of places in my career, you've not narrowed it down :D

Thanks for the reminder. At some point I should try and get BathCamp going again.

I'm being careful not to explicitly out myself to maintain some level of anonymity here :D but safety-critical, that should help narrow it down! There isn't a whole lot of tech stuff happening in Bath so I'll try and remember to keep an eye out to see if you go through with that!
