‘I Saw You’ makes a Valentine’s Day-themed return

By Martin Booth  Monday Feb 13, 2023

‘I Saw You’ was a popular section in Venue magazine as people across Bristol sent in fleeting glimpses of the boy they had sat opposite on the train to Severn Beach or the girl they had briefly spoke to at Ashton Court Festival.

The entrance to Ebenezer Gate Pocket Park has now seen the real-life return of the feature in time for Valentine’s Day.

A pen and labels are free to use, with passers-by encouraged to “please write a message for the one who’s caught your eye”.
