So we managed a couple of nice pints in the Crown last weekend. Instantly when you taste beer from Sussex and Kent you get very regionally grounded.
Tuesday, I had to go to a meeting in Hastings and I knew that it might take a while and the BBB had some work to do in our workbase. So, once I was on the train back - a little later than I had originally anticipated - I suggested we keep it simple and meet in Ninkasi.
It was really nice to step off the train, and stroll directly across the car park and into the bar. Good beer available as always and then the boy joined me and we were both able to quietly de-people, together.
Wednesday I spent the day writing funding bids...as is my want. But by the time I'd finished I was cold, tired and rapidly developing a temperature. Great - again.
No beer since then and, truth be told, I didn't even fancy any.
I think I'm on the mend now so I might risk one later - though I'm not quite ready to hike to the pub. Perhaps some nice fridge-beer.
