But I was thinking 51 pubs visited for the week, blog three at a time. 51 / 3 = 17. "<br /><br />You're confusing apples and oranges. IF you did three pubs per blog post then yes, 17. BUT, IF you did two blogs a day, regardless of pubs per blog, then yes, 18. :)<br /><br />"When you need a pee, the last thing you want is for the pub to be located on a side road called Watersplash."<br /><br />Especially if there's a babbling brook, or small waterfall, beside it!<br /><br />" It would prove costly."<br /><br />He went straight for the loo?<br /><br />"Good pubs don't need to show their name"<br /><br />And here's me guessing Wheatsheaf instead of Barley Mow.<br /><br />"the threat of Covid probably didn't concern them anymore than an asteroid hitting their homes."<br /><br />It's the beer. I keep telling my wife that but she just rolls her eyes.<br /><br />" Hitting the pub, now that would be a cause for concern. "<br /><br />(slow golf clap)<br /><br />" this probably was the longest wait for a drink all holiday,"<br /><br />Shoulda gone straight to the loo first.<br /><br />"Now one beer you don't want to be shouting at the top of your voice is 'Naked Ladies!',"<br /><br />Nonsense! I'd be ordering that with a shout every time I got it!<br /><br />"Had to repeat myself, just at the moment a ladies hockey team walked through the door."<br /><br />Has a nice ring to it though. Much better than 'mornin' luv' or some such. And, if you could infer a comma between 'naked' and 'ladies' when you said it out loud, well... who knows? :)<br /><br />"It was only back in York about 5 days later that I realised in these 'restricted' times, shared snacks on tables is probably not something many pubs would be doing!"<br /><br />Pfft. I was led to believe that usually only folks from two different households can sit at one table.<br /><br />"perhaps not the bottom one!"<br /><br />Was that picture on an actual toilet stall? If not, it should have been. ;)<br /><br />"got a bit stuck behind an eclectic mix of locals ....."<br /><br />Suuuuuuure.<br /><br />" Oi mate, shift yer sen."<br /><br />Seeing as what's in the bottom right of the photo you could have said 'on yer bike!'.<br /><br />" What with all the social distancing, the week had been lacking true classic BRAPA moments of strangeness, so this was a pleasing end! "<br /><br />Indeed.<br /><br />"Not a bad effort, could've been even better with a bit more luck"<br /><br />Not bad. I'm sure many other folk are 'green' with envy. :)<br /><br />"and as I sipped my TEA (Traditional English Ale if you wondered),"<br /><br />I'll have to remember that one! :)<br /><br />" One of the two lads decides to tell of a 'conquest' with a Claire Taylor, "<br /><br />I was expecting the other fellow to be Clair's boyfriend, or even husband! ;)<br /><br />"and it could be a fun day with Tom, Dad and my Cauliflower."<br /><br />I still think that sounds a bit rude.<br /><br />"See you all tomorrow at the earlier time of 9pm"<br /><br />Or more like 5am the next day your time by the time I can log on to look.<br /><br />CheersRusstovichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11493687426847380993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677885556404476308.post-58824877347013803042020-08-26T00:09:12.492+01:002020-08-26T00:09:12.492+01:00Oh, well done.

Amazing how many of those pubs looked like Covid never happened, and I guess with 3 Covid deaths in Surrey since July that's probably how they see it. retiredmartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429804437739227082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677885556404476308.post-77334823452366090762020-08-26T00:06:26.758+01:002020-08-26T00:06:26.758+01:00Tasters?
