The group moved on to the site last night.
Police are now watching over a convoy of
caravans, cars, horseboxes and horses.
The
Bristol Port Company is expected to take action this
morning to move the group on.
Student
travel
A new deal has been struck to allow
hundreds of students in Bristol to travel free on the
city's buses.
The bus firm First has agreed young
people with passes will now be able to use them whenever
they want, not just to get to school or
college.
It is a joint decision by First and the
city council, which spends more than £200,000 a year on
passes for students.
Appeal for food for
hungry canines
Large dogs are eating a
charity out of house and home, because they are harder
to rehouse.
Each of the hungry canines at the
Bristol Dogs Home in St Phillips eat seven large tins of
food a week, as well as biscuits and other
treats.
With 100 dogs on the charity's register
at any one time, the bill for food is more than £400
each week.
People are now being asked to put an
extra tin of dog food into their shopping basket to help
feed the dogs.
Teddy comfort
Avon
Ambulance crews will from now on be equipped with
special Teddy bears, to comfort youngsters on their way
to and from hospital.
Fifty of the so-called
"Para Teds " have been donated by Bristol Brunel Lions
Club.
They will be handed out to injured children
to try to make their journey by ambulance a bit less
daunting. |
