Bristol’s most tuneful planter
Ever since it reopened a couple of years ago with Peter Gibbs behind the bar, The Volunteer Tavern in the St Jude’s district of Bristol has gone from strength to strength and now provides excellent beers and fine food in a quiet oasis amid the city’s bustle.
I was there on Sunday and noticed what is possibly the city’s most tuneful planter full of bedding plants.
I’ve heard of a player piano (also known as a pianola. Ed.), but never a planter piano!
