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 Blackwater Stream - Broadstone
Visited 26th June 2011. The weatherman had been saying all week that we were in for a very hot Sunday so we made our plans to head for the coast (along with most of the rest of the country). We set the alarm for an early start in an attempt to miss any traffic. As it happened things did not go entirely to plan so it was about about half past nine before we finally left the house! As it turned out we didn't encounter any traffic and pretty quickly found ourselves in Broadstone. We found our target pub and the car park round back, for patrons only... (£1 refundable when you spend £5 or more in the pub). The pub was fairly busy with everybody ordering breakfasts. We joined the queue and ordered our breakfasts, toast and coffees. Although it was hot outside it was pleasantly cool inside and even though there were a lot of people ordering it wasn't to long before our food arrived. We had places to be so as soon as we had finished eating it was back to the car for the final stint to the beach.
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.
