Bristol, Avon or Bristol, Gloucestershire? Sorry, I'm not from England...

[basham]

Not Avon or Gloucestershire. I'm not from England either

Bristol is Historically a County in its own right and is properly entiled the City and County of Bristol.
You have raised this ? before.

It's certainly not Gloucestershire (which is where I live) ...... but does Avon still exist as a county, I thought that was done away with years ago?
