Fa – the Green Dragon

A Place for the Odd Musings of an Expat Bristolian

Stonehenge, Druid built.
A place to follow the sun.
Celtic genius

Paramount Jazz band
Where Acker played clarinet
Bernard Stanley Bilk.

My given name is
Edward Teach, high sea sailor;
but to you, Blackbeard!

Before I could read,
I attended Avon vale School.
]It’s not there any more!

It used to be that
Nails outside the Corn Exchange
Is where debts were paid

walking up Park Street,
you pass St George’s tower.
Its bell rings e flat.

Russ Conway, was part
of Bristol’s musical scene.
Still loved to this day.

Walk about Welsh back
Imagine sailing ships docked
readied for high seas

house on Windmill Hill
It’s part of Bedminster
My Aunt Skrine lived there

Legend says Avon
Gorge was dug by Two Giants
Vincent and Goram
