    AWARD-WINNING No. 94 Summer 2012 www.camrabristol.org.uk INTS WES Multi-award-winning magazine of the Bristol & District Branch of CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale P (incorporating the Bath & Borders Branch) T Fight back to save your pint! Sign the beer tax e-petition t’s time to save your pint and fight back against this year’s budget which saw the Government continue its damaging policy of the beer duty Iescalator. Every year beer tax increases by 2% above inflation meaning your pint in the pub costs you maybe 10p more. This mounting pressure is contributing to the closure of 16 pubs every single week. CAMRA is calling all beer drinkers and pub goers to sign an online e-petition today by visiting: www.camra.org.uk/saveyourpint We need 100,000 signatures to trigger a high-profile Parliamen- tary debate and put pressure on the Government ahead of Budget 2013. To stand a chance of doing this we need your help in reach- ing as many people as possible. So please sign the petition and then spread the word. CAMRA also has free material to take down your local and join the campaign. Email [email protected] to order free beer mats and posters.* With around £1 on every pint going to the Treasury in beer duty and VAT, it’s time to save your pint and call time on the beer duty escalator! *One pubs pack contains 5 x A4 posters and 100 beer mats, please let Claire know how many pubs packs you would like.

  • News for December 2013 5Th December 2013 Christmas Lunch
    News for December 2013 5th December 2013 Christmas Lunch at the Old Royal Ship. Message from Bill Balchin. Well done all you heroes who rode to, and especially from, Luckington. I hope you got home before dark. Yes, I bottled out and drove - but I don't mind once a year when I have eaten a Christmas lunch (excellent as usual I thought). Many thanks to Pete and Malcolm, not just for today but all year. Ride report from Pete Campbell: We left Mangotsfield station at 10:15 with Rob Searle leading the way to Luckington. His appointment as ride leader today was clearly a popular decision, as twenty-two people made their way to the old station for the ride. Two minutes into the ride Lara rolled over a sharp object (not sure what, but I guess that doesn't really matter, only that her tyre needed fixing). Mike volunteered to assist and the pair made their own way to lunch. So a smaller but still large enough group of twenty followed Rob down the new cycle path across the railway into Westerleigh, up Wapley Hill, through Dodington and across the A46 near Old Sodbury. A loop through Badminton village gave us the opportunity to view some seriously high-quality Cotswold stone for a few seconds. But we were not out for the view - a Christmas meal was waiting. A short detour round Alderton and we'd done 28 kilometers before lunch. We had seventy two people there this year for the very acceptable menu of soup, turkey with many trimmings and Christmas pudding.

  • Pints West 51, Summer 2001
    No. 51 Summer 2001 IIINNNTSTSTS WWWEEESSS PPPNewsletter of the Bristol & District Branch of CAMRA, the Campaign for RealTTT Ale CongratulationsCongratulations,, MrMr ShippShipp –– it’it’ss aa brbreewwerery!y! IT is with great pleasure that we can announce the (imminent) birth of a brewery to proud father Malcolm Shipp. Malcolm may already be known to some of you as the person who leased the Swan With Two Necks in St Judes a while back, and who also operates his own wholesaling business, Shipping Beer, importing and distributing quality cask ales. Now he is realising his dream of opening and running his very own brewery. The brewery is located in Keynsham on the outskirts of Bristol, sharing premises with the Shipping Beer offices, and has been Picture christened Nursery Brewery. Eventually there should also be a bar and tasting room. Initial plans were to have the brewery operational by the end of July, but mid August now seems more likely, and Malcolm hopes to launch the beers at the Cornubia in Bristol. The man doing the actual brewing will be the ex-head brewer from Sutton Brewery, Steve Cheeseright, who brought us such delights as Plymouth Porter, Sutton Comfort and XSB. But what of the beers themselves? These will be in keeping with the theme suggested by the name of the brewery, and the first ones In this issue... to be made available will be: Watering Holes in the Desert Little Miss Muffet – a light beer around 3.8% abv. Hey Diddle Diddle – about 4.3% abv. News from Weston-super-Mare page 12-15 Three Blind Mice – about 4.6% abv.

  • Rising Tun 2019 Summer
    From the Editor... I don’t suppose we can complain about cold weather www.swindon.camra.org.uk this summer! [email protected] I’ve been travelling quite a bit and in July had ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: a meeting in Kentish I’d like to thank Richard James, Chris James, Barry Town, North London, Hillier, Vince Chilcott and Gill White for their invaluable and was planning to visit help in compiling this issue. the famous Assembly Rooms, next to the tube station. Unbeknown to me, it’s now a Greene King house, and even for Greene King a sole ‘Abbot’ pump, in such an iconic public house, was both a surprise and a disgrace. With a quick change of mind I walked south on the same side, to the Oxford Tavern, and was pleased to find a superb free house with 5 well-kept ales, (2 from the West Berks Brewery). I opted for Eternal, a light and flavoursome 4% with citrus fruit overtones brewed by Northern Monk. A quick Google told me ‘THE RISING TUN’ is the magazine of Swindon and they are based in Marshalls Mill in Leeds. Definitely North Wiltshire branch of CAMRA (Campaign for one to look out for. Not cheap at £2.40 a half and £10 Real Ale) for a burger, but hey, this is London prices. Toilets could do with a spruce up (and some soap in the THE LOCAL DIARY dispensers) otherwise top marks. All meetings and social events are relaxed and friendly. Just got back from three weeks in my place in Los Why not come along and join us? Members and non Cristianos, Tenerife.

  • Oldbury-On-Severn Flood Report May 2017
    Oldbury-on-Severn Flood Report May 2017 May 2017 1 INTRODUCTION This report has been produced to summarise investigations into the local flooding in Oldbury-on-Severn, in particular the flood incident that occurred on 9th March 2016 and to recommend further work that should be undertaken to reduce this risk. This note seeks to improve understanding of the sources of local flooding to the area and the future flooding that might occur. This report seeks to also provide some further responses to the letters and reports received from the Parish Council concerning flooding in Oldbury-on-Severn. This report is intended to be used as part of a wider study on flood risk to the area, in which potential options to reduce the flood risk will be discussed further. This work is being completed as part of a ‘Local Levy’ funded programme1. This is not intended to be a comprehensive study and will not have captured all the previous work that has been undertaken in this area. It is intended to help inform the current discussions on flooding and to help identify any ‘quick win’ options that may be able to be undertaken in a short time frame, whilst feasibility work is continuing into any longer term options. 2 AVAILABLE DATA 2.1 TIDE DATA Observed tide level data has been provided by the Environment Agency for Avonmouth and Sharpness within the Severn Estuary.
