Since is my first time in UK, I've never really seen their houses before. I've always thought is more of a "harry potter"-ish type with big castle, old red brick and a bridge over a small river. Most of the time I've only watched American show where their houses are huge with a big frontyard or backyard, and some with garage and attic.
However, the houses here is quite small. I don't feel cheated or sad, I think is incredible because it saves a lot of space but I've heard the whole house has only one toilet and one bathroom. I wonder how they live in such condition! I guess I can say I was lucky to have my own toilet- yet I complain the cleaning. LOL
Okay, so the houses here is something like a townhouse back in Malaysia which are all the same size and design and sticks beside another house really closely. The main gate is something like a fence in Malaysia, not like our big metal gate that protect us from thieves. There's a small step leading up to their front door but not all the houses are alike, as I go along the street from the city towards the suburban area, the house gets larger and there is also a porch to park their cars or plant some flowerbeds- whichever.
My guess is the house in the city is expensive, hence a small one without a porch. The locals mention that the house in Clifton Down are huge like a bungalow in Malaysia. I've seen a few times up on a small hill and they were vacant by rich people back in Victorian times. By the way, the pets are extremely well groom, I can see their hair silky smooth and rich in nutrients! All the dogs are in leash though and they look really tame. I've never seen one bark at any strangers but just follow the master. They would go for a jog with their master in the cold- is just too cute! I love animals but could never have one- the hassle =P
I guess that's all I can say about Bristol. Till I find something interesting, I'll add more.
Cheers
