The Flying Standard - Coventry

Visited 15th December 2012.
 
Another short walk (once we were going in the correct direction) and we were at 'The Flying Standard'. An impressive looking pub that was equally as nice inside. It was also very busy but Mrs S. managed to snag us a table while went to the bar and ordered two hot chocolates along with some toffee waffles and mignon wafers (living the high life). The very polite barmaid kept apologising for keeping me waiting but didn't actually keep me waiting very long considering how busy it was and how many people were waiting to be served. So far we were doing well, three pubs and all pretty decent.

The Jolly Sailor - Bristol

Visited 18th September 2011.

Pub three and it's still raining. This one is more in the style I like, lots of dark paneling and a mixture of yellow and burgundy paint. I went upstairs and got a table number and waited for some bar staff to appear to take my order. Eventually a young lady came and took my order for sticky toffee pudding and custard (always have to have custard with sticky toffee pudding). The pub was busy with a mix of all ages and it took a while for my pudding to arrive. I sat and ate, while reading my book. Only a few more chapters to go, hmm, should I stay and finish it or pace myself as I still had two pubs to go. I decide to pace myself. By the time I had dried out it was time to set off again. By the time I had taken a little self-portrait it had stopped raining. Woohoo! Time for pub four.
