or go to streetmap.co.uk and type in manzil way .then pan out to find the TRAIN STATION which is in the main city to the west of the jam.
trains from bristol only cost £13 day return.£9 from reading etc... so get on down!

BUSSES from london victoria and run 24hrs.
they cost £13for a 24hr.return or £7 if you leave after 3pm.
£16 for an open return
get off at st. clements and just ask anyone where the cowley road is.

the BUS STATION is in the town centre so just head east and ask for cowley road.

Cars can be parked in tesco carpark on the cowley road.
Hitch hikers should be able to sort it out for themselves!
