Independence for Bristol?
« on: February 06, 2012, 11:49:16 AM »
Or perhaps the secessation of the West Country? We have already gone further down the road than Scotland and now have our own currency - the Bristol Pound. Today it is worth the same as the "Rest-of-the-UK" Pound but if it starts trading strongly against the Euro then this may change. Do any of the Calis/Fethiye banks have plans to accept this currency?

I'm sure you'll find someone in Fethiye who will change your money

I do hope they don't decide to have a Bristol Visitor Visa for us Britishers to visit. These can cause confusion. I wonder if people who have one but are actually living in Bristol full time would be able to get the visa run day trip ferry to Newport, or possibly just get the bus to Bath and back.

Are they intending being signatories to the Schwengen Agreement? If so as a foreigner living in Bristol Colwyn you will probably need to get a Residency Permit. ;)

That's OK, as long as I don't have to get a Tapu.
