Designer1 Posted August 23, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2019 Beer and a (highly recommended) Jam tribute band tonight. Then, if the weather stays this way I shall mostly be spending the BH weekend in the garden listening to tunes and drinking more beer and wine. Lovely.

Then over to Broad Street, find the most agreeable bar for a drink then karaoke, I may venture up and select a song for my own rendition. More drinks elsewhere - to be determined, then hotel. Nice day for it! Come on you Pears! Tap & Spile for the karaoke? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tap & Spile has no limits/standards* I imagine he would be welcomed in on the proviso he belted out "Its Raining Men" or "I Will Survive" *delete as applicable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you end up? Did a couple of the standard go to pubs - old joint stock, rose villa. After the cricket, we had to go straight to the karaoke - had a ****ing nightmare with the taxis, I won’t say the company, but Christ alive were they shit. So due to their ineptitude we didn’t get the chance to try out the tap & spile. After a few drinks and my heart wrenching performance of Natalie Imbruglia’s “Torn” we headed over to the actress & bishop. Out of convenience more than anything but was pretty decent. Tucked up in bed by 3am (ish). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No solid rule in our van though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted August 29, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 29, 2019 I'm early with this as I've just started a 4 day weekend . I plan to spend tomorrow morning cleaning up the flat, for I have friends visiting. Tomorrow evening we're heading for something nice to eat (probably tapas) followed by beers. On Saturday we're probably going to go park up the coast and take a walk to see Hurst Castle (at the end of a spit and everso close to the Isle of Wight). This will probably be followed by another lovely meal somewhere and some fine beers . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing about cassette toilets is that when they get blocked and you have to sort it with a pencil. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
