Anyone going to spt from bristol or near? and tips for accomodation

edited August 2012 in The Sky Poker Tour
hi all this will be my first spt and although i cant wait to go i was wondering if anyone was possibly leaving from bristol, passing through it or near it and would like to let a sexy hitchhiker come along to keep you company if i chip in for petrol, i promise no hatchets. :) 

Also does anyone have any tips for staying up there on a budget and the best places to stay?

    i am going up on the friday will be coming back hopefully late evening sunday after taking down 1st prize ha!, going to play the night before, im travelling up from cardiff, so could easily pick you up from somewhere near the m4, if you want. 
    I have had a look at a few of the hotels nearby on laterooms. im probably going to book hylands hotel. seems to have half decent reviews and its pretty cheap, only 32 quid  a night for a single room and 48 for a twin. its only a bed to sleep and leaves more money for side events.

    yeah, just msg me your number and we can then sort out where i can pick you up and what time etc. plus we can book that hotel. i dont mind sharing a room to save that few extra quid. it will probably be lost on the cash tables though ha. p.s if your lying about the snoring im going to throw you out of the room ha
