FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - Bognor Regis 12th August 2011

[dellzeqq]

they do bottles, but I'm not sure of the size. Budweiser, Pils and Strongbow cider/

 

[Aperitif]

My guess is that they will vend 330mll at 500ml prices - depends how many they can get in the oven. Are you expecting chilled?

Vend? Vend! Away with your modern consumer speak! You'll be asking the barkeep "can I get a... " next, when eny fule no the preferred method of address is "two pints of your finest ale, my good man."

Enough, Tim. 'Teef's franglais is no cause for a vendetta, however small!

You ask for that in Bognor, make sure you take a chair - you'll need to rest. And, if you say that to the 'damsel' serving, a large pot is sure to find it's way to you, Tim

That's bad. Very bad.

The full version is of course "two flagons of your finest foaming ale stout yeoman of the bar", although I think beard and sandals are required to carry this off so it's probably more of a YACF thing.

Pints and finest. Two alien concepts in this environment.

I think a "good man" could be tricky to find too.

men are like parking spaces: the good ones are taken, the rest are disabled.

Looks like this FNRttC will coincide with the Perseid meteor shower, which will peak between 02:00 and 14:00 on the 13th. Unfortunately we'll be heading south, rather than towards the radiant in the north-east, and we'll have a full moon, but may still enjoy some spectacles in the night sky!
