The Wow Factor
T HE WAITING as they say is almost over for this
month heralds the much anticipated and eagerly
awaited re-opening of the Grand Pier in Weston. With
the gossip mongers in overdrive in terms of what the
Pier will feature, one thing’s for sure the level of interest
in this beacon for tourism and growth can only bode
well for this bastion of Victorian sea-side charm and the
economy in general.
Viewed perhaps rather unkindly as a traditional ‘kiss-
me-quick’ type venue, Weston has much to recommend
for itself. One of the town’s un-sung hero’s has to be the
rather wonderful Weston Seaquarium situated on the
sea front. This is a gem of an attraction offering a rare
insight into ocean life and with an all day family ticket
allowing you to come and go as you please, it offers
entertainment and exceptional value for all the family.
With the sea front and stalwart donkeys in attendance,
the beach will always prove a winner. However, it would
be a pity to discount the other fine opportunities that
exist. Whether it be bowling, the chance to explore
some fabulous Victorian architecture and world class
museums or to plump for the bird’s eye option and soak experience whatever your age or persuasion. With
it all in courtesy of Weston’s very own version of the summer firmly in our sights make sure to factor it in

Diary of the Month
The Royal Bath and West Show in June 2010, was a major success, with record
numbers of visitors joined with the fantastic weather. The organisers of this
event were very pleased. The Whatson Team were working with the Wookey
Hole team and came back to the office. We did not think that they had been
working. We thought they had been on holiday to Spain as each and every one
of the them had a very good tan. Looking forward to 2011 Show.

Bristol city centre. So you get the best of both worlds: a
village community feel, with all the bright lights just a short
drive or 11 minute* train ride away.
We could wax lyrical about the merits of this area with
its excellent infrastructure and proximity to Bristol Parkway
Station - city slickers can be in London Paddington in just
1 hour 23 minutes* - and the M4, M5 and M32 motorway
network. And enthuse further still about these new, totally
