Are you back from the pub already Walt? Lightweight!
Ha ha , got in there at two , had four pints and we were home by five .
Really enjoyed it , it started getting colder around five , the sun went down behind the building. We were in an open sided , very large Marquee .
Very pleasant ...... Table service , by very inexperienced table servers , took a while , but we ordered two pints at a time each , seemed to confuse them at first !
I don’t like my beer in these “new fangled “
multishaped , advertising glasses so I always have mine in one of the old fashioned clear straight glass .
For some reason they are known as NonEc glasses .
That took a while to convey as well .
When the pub was open as normal , before lockdown , the regular staff knew that , knew what I drank and I didn’t have to ask .
But ,, I really enjoyed seeing all the old faces , nobody has been reported as missing , seems like everyone who used to go there before has made it .
The landlady is even taking bookings for bands again when further restriction are being lifted.
I don’t know if I would want to go every week and sit in a marquee , it was ok for a one off experience , ok if you was sitting down , but you can’t mingle , not allowed to stand up and walk around , pint in your hand .
I’m not sure they even still sell Babycham RD, I’m going to ask .
They did have a new Italian Lager , tastes a bit like Draught Peroni I’m told . I stayed on my usual Kronenberg .
