DOCK SIDE STORY

Yarr, it be time to set sail for the newsagents, belike, to plunder this week’s edition of Venue, stuffed with doubloons of information, and, errr, um … Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of milk?

MUST TRY HARBOUR - The harbour is what makes Bristol what it is, and there’s all sorts of interesting people and corners there. Come join us as we seek out some characters, places and trace the recent history.

I SAW YOU - The batty, the brilliant, the bizarre… All manner of heartwarming and/or strange Valentine messages are in this week’s specially-extended I Saw You section.

PLUS - Prize-winning poet Philip Gross … Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory return … Bestselling author Jill Mansell … Peter Jackson on ‘The Lovely Bones’ … Bath’s all-conquering funk-rockers The Heavy … Half-term family fun … Win £50 clothing voucher … Job ads ... And loads more, including your complete ten-day local entertainment guide.

Don't miss out - place a regular order with your newsagent now* or we’ll tell your other half you’re planning to give them First Bus change tickets instead of a proper Valentine gift.

* Or just call 0117 942 8491 to subscribe for a very non-bumper £4.99 a month!
