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 Rising Sun - Redditch
Visited 17th October 2012.
The Rising Sun was a good deal bigger inside than it appeared from the outside and was also fairly empty so I had no problem getting a table. I did have a bit of a problem getting served though as it seemed to take quite a long time before I was noticed... and I'm not small! I ordered a hot chocolate and sausage and mash. When it eventually arrived I was a bit surprised to only get two sausages but it seemed it was due to the new menu which had only just been introduced. Only two as they were bigger and more flavoursome, at least that's what I was told. Sadly my sausages were a bit overdone so I was unable to appreciate the new flavour (and I still would have liked three). By the time I left the pub it was raining more heavily and I was quite wet by the time I reached the car. The rain continued to get heavier and heavier and I was pleased to get home without any mishaps. So all in all, although I managed to visit quite a few pubs I missed out on my night away. Maybe next time...
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.
