00:00 One thing Bristol does well is an occasion. This Valentine's Day the city has so much to offer
00:07 from club nights to restaurant themed meals to chocolate making classes and flower arranging
00:12 courses. There is so much on offer but what will Bristolians do to mark the occasion?
00:17 Passed my sell-by date. I like the Italian very much, the one in North View, very very nice.
00:25 We don't usually celebrate on Valentine's Day, we usually have go out for a meal or something
00:31 after so we do do something. No cards or anything like that but we go out and have a bit of time
00:36 together somewhere. Trying to do things like go out more so I went out to a restaurant for the
00:40 first time last week and I was just saying to my wife we need to kind of book in some nice
00:45 things to do kind of regularly. The chocolate tart is offering chocolate making courses fit
00:51 for royals this Valentine's Day, teaching the people of Bristol to create their own unique
00:57 chocolate for their loved ones. Yeah so on Valentine's Day I'm running a workshop where
01:03 I'm going to be teaching people how to make their own moulded chocolates so they'll be choosing a
01:08 heart mould or I've got little lips and they'll be making heart-shaped bonbons or lip-shaped bonbons
01:15 filling them with our house milk ganache and they'll also be doing some moulded work so
01:21 they're Valentine's themed moulds as well. Yes definitely it's a really great thing to do as a
01:26 couple or Galentines, get lots of girls coming without any partners. Yeah but it's a year-round
01:35 activity, it's popular from Christmas through to Valentine's, Mother's Day, Father's Day,
01:43 Easter of course is a big popular time for chocolate work.
01:46 The Bristol Aquarium is offering an adults-only aquarium night, allowing guests to give their
01:53 loved ones a secret message in a bottle. So yeah the Valentine's evening event is always a really
02:00 really popular event, it's an adults-only evening so basically it gives the adults a chance to come
02:08 in and enjoy the animals in a bit of peace and quiet without the kids. We love having the kids
02:12 in but sometimes it can be nice to enjoy it without them. We'll have a bar so people can
02:18 walk around with a glass of fizz, we've got some special fishy aquatic cocktails, themed cocktails
02:24 not actual fish cocktails. People come here they can expect to be amazed, be wondered, they can
02:29 definitely expect to learn something. It's a really great place to come and learn new things,
02:36 fantastic place for kids and also a great place to learn about how people can sort of take care
02:42 of the planet a bit better. Sustainability is a really important thing to us so yeah learning
02:48 how to live with the creatures that we share the planet with is definitely something you can find
02:51 all about at Bristol Aquarium. One thing is for certain there is something for everyone to do in
02:57 the city of Bristol this Valentine's Day.
