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 Ivy House - Alton
Visited 7th March 2015.
The sun has come out to play, so it's time to get the bike out. The big question, will it start? The answer, surprisingly is yes so I climb on and it's off to Alton. Basingstoke slowed me down a bit as it turned out to be full of roadworks but the road between Basingstoke and Alton was a lovely ride. I managed to find the pub without any trouble and handily there was a car park opposite. The pub was very busy and I ended up sitting outside to drink my pint of Pepsi. The pub was a decent size and seemed to consist of lots of little rooms and alcoves even to the point of sticking a table in the corridor under the stairs. The temperature was starting to drop a little so it was time to head back home, remembering to avoid Basingstoke! Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.
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.
