We know there’s other stuff going on that you might have thought was more important, but we thought we’d mention it, just in case it turns out to be important...
It’s just that, well, the swans are starting to rebel.

It wasn’t frightened by a double decker bus.
It fronted up to a double decker bus.
We were wrong.
It gave absolutely no swan f***s at all.
On Friday, it said ‘hold my swan beer’....
It fronted up to a high speed train heading, the 1430 departure from platform 5, heading to Bath, and then on to London.
This swan seemed to know exactly what it was doing.
But no one knew why

Where will it strike next?
We’re a city in nervous anticipation, nay dread...
Bristol is the de facto capital of the West Country, otherwise known as Hot Fuzz Land, after the wonderful documentary film by @edgarwright which starred @nickjfrost & @simonpegg
Bristol local @StephenMerchant warned us. He was probably the first to really appreciate what swans are capable of.
But we stopped thinking about that, because both prospects are equally disconcerting and disturbing, if you think it through.
If it is two different swans, it means they are getting organised.
Oh and can we have @nickjfrost and @simonpegg back for a bit.
They seemed to have a way with the swans.
The logic here is that since the swan really doesn’t want people to get to Bath, we should give it what it wants.
Again, this also smacks of appeasement.
we are clutching at any straw that could make sense of this disturbing threat.
Could the swan be warning us about air pollution & traffic congestion on the A4 Bristol-Bath corridor through Brislington? But in a really obtuse way?
@ASPJoeIles could still do with the reinforcements of those two nice young officers @simonpegg and @nickjfrost who were the breakout stars of that fly-on-the-wall documentary a few years back.
They are biding their time, waiting for the right moment.
However....
Who was doing the carrying?
Were they taking the swan TO the station platform to cause the disruption, or away again?
(The station / stairs lay out is such it could be either)
As you can see from the whole thread here, your city’s future depends on it. Any info you can provide...
The @thebristolbugle = many a true word written in jest...
