Have you ever wondered about Bristol's pirate past? No? Well you should probably do this anyway -

When you have a free hour or so, take you and your MP3 player to the Merchants Ventureres Almshouses, King Street (pretty much next to the Old Vic).
Listen to the tour, following the instructions - you don't need to bring a map.
Not convinced? Want more information? Well it's about 18th century Bristol and is sort of based a little on the book "treasure island". It tells you about the history of the dockside, some old pubs, queens square, and a few other places.
Still not convinced? You can hear some old sea shanty's being sung...which personally I think is pretty cool. And the best bit is that you can pretend to be a pirate...but I would recommend that you only do this in your head.
