Basically this is a diary of the various Wetherspoon and Lloyds bars I visit and any adventures on the way, with maybe a few words about life as we know it thrown in for good measure.

The King And Castle - Windsor
Visited 27th March 2009.
A Lloyds No. 1 bar. The price of food and drink reflect the fact that The King And Castle is situated directly opposite Windsor Castle and will catch a large number of the tourists visiting one of the most popular attractions in the area.
A nice place and popular. This means long waits at the bar. OK, now for a bit of a moan. I've always believed that a good barman is aware of who is waiting at the bar and then serves them in the order of who has been waiting the longest. The barman working our end of the bar followed a different pattern based not on who had been waiting the longest but on who was showing the most cleavage. This meant very, very, very long waits for about half of the people wanting a drink!
Probably not going to return to this one. Never mind, plenty more waiting...
Determined. If it involves a beer. This has led me to commit myself to a "Quest" to visit and have at least one drink or meal in each Wetherspoons pub in the UK. I have set myself no time limit, in fact I have not set myself any rules other than the most basic.
Never drink before noon,
(it's always after noon somewhere), when in doubt turn left and never run with scissors.
