Can I just say, if you start drinking with the Seahorses at 1:30 pm, you better not have any other plans for that day.
Sounds like good people! I Was anything notable on the drinks menu?

Since I tend to like dry ciders and just wanted something that could go with dinner my husband suggested Thatcher's. I was pretty happy with "gold" and they have a few others. But I'd love to go to a pub with a variety of smaller producers on tap. :)

I'd pay your bus fare if you bring your trombone

Well, I don't mind bringing the trombone  ;D, but I'm not sure about a 9+ hour bus trip to actually go drink with you.

9 hours is just about how long the hangover will be so it matches perfectly.

Sorry Margo, I didn't notice any particular ciders at this place. 

The bartender took us on a private tour of the upstairs, where they had Skee Ball, Remote control car racing and 5 people working full time on virtual reality.  I'm going back when that part is open.

Wow! Which bar was it? Sounds like tons of fun where I wouldn't mind being DD once we have a car.

Look up the four thieves in Clapham
I'm certainly taking the whole family on Sunday Afternoon when the Arcade is open.
Skee Ball!

I got my hubby a 6 month beer subscription for his birthday. Secretly, so he can share with his amazing wife who got him the gift.   ;) :D

Here's one for the beer obsessives out there.  On Saturday night we went to a stand up comedy show at our local brewery.  I took this picture :

You can just make out MT on the far tank, which I'm guessing is Mash Tun.  What about the others?  Why "Copper"?

Because it sounds like a more suitable name than Ted!
