Ed's walk to the pub

sobriqueFriday.
Again.
Thankfully.
Dunno why, but every week since I returned to work in Jan has been a loong one. I will really be appreciating that beer tonight.
Change of venue this evening, The Nursery tavern, on Lord St. (Earlsdon). If you can read this, then your company would be appreciated.
On another not entirely dissimilar note, I am considering next weekend (Saturday 12th) doing an 'Ed's walk to the Beer Engine' bar crawl.
For a while now, I've been thinking as I've walked across Cov, that I've been past an awful lot of pubs. Quite a few of these, I've never even been in.
So, given that it's just across from me, start will be at the Nursery, at opening time (which is either 10 or 11, I'm not entirely sure, but I'll check tonight). Probably for beer and breakfast.
from there, it'll be along Allesley Old Road, to the Four Provinces, following that road along stopping at each drinking establishment we encounter.
I tend to go past the odeon, so am undecided as to whether stopping at the string of bars in the Skydome is a good idea or not ;p. From there, up through city centre, (and no, marks and spencers does NOT count as a bar, even if they do sell booze), up the street of a thousand banks, and down gosford st. towards the beer engine.
Now counting fingers, there are rather a lot of pubs along this route. So some may be skipped by consensus. (If one stops at two or three at the skydome, then 15, and that's not counting any 'just off' the way, like the aardvark, golden cross or courtyard).
Of course if no one's up for it, I'll grab breakfast and a pint, and then toodle back and play Rome Total war all day ;p
So, anyone interested?
