Stafford Tour

[Trumpet]

Mrs T meeting ex work colleagues in town this afto so so am having a bit of a tour. Liquor Tank, not for me. Devils Taphouse, cheerful young lady serving, decent pint, still not as good as The Floodgate days. Poked my head in The Coach on Mill Bank but nothing I fancied drinking. Currently in The Bird, lovely, decent beer, nice atmosphere, best of the afternoon so far.
Just my opinion obvs.

Tried Candid yet?

 

[Trumpet]

Considered it but decided to head back into town when I left Devils place.

Spent a lot of time in the Bear and Pheasant when I lived in Stafford, used to be a great little pub. Not been in for a while.

Kicking off early tonight, handbags at 20 paces outside the Coach and Horses.
Tonight's star prize for foulest language goes to a female member of the Coach 'Security Team'.

How surprising...

 

[Zylo]

Why you go to the coach? it's as much of a dive as the grapes.

Much rather go Market vaults... Shrew bird..... or anywhere.

Was in the outside drinking area at the Post House.

You get a far better ringside seat in the Nepalese restaurant.

Nearly every time I've been in with @tek-monkey and we've sat in the front something has kicked off over the road.

I think they may put it on as entertainment whilst they're preparing your food

I much preferred it in the 1970s as the Pheasant and kept by Sid Tomlinson.

Currently enjoying a decent pint of Wainwright's in The Vaults.

Trumpet,
On Saturday I toured eight Norfolk pubs, in Norwich, Cromer and Sheringham and mostly Adnams, Fullers and Greene King.

Adnams, Fullers and Greene King.

A great improvement, 40 years ago it would probably have been Watney, Whitbread, Allied & Greene King

Yes indeed, my recollection of Norfolk nearer fifty years ago was a near Watneys monopoly.
