Rugeley Villa Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 BBQ at the house behind us tomorrow. They are also renting a bouncy castle for the kids. This is the guy who's a radical Labour supporter, and has tried to kiss me twice. Should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 15, 2018 Couple of beers tonight but early to bed. Get up at about 2am and work the road until about 8am, take the missus shopping as early as possible... Come home for a bit to rest up, then out for a few (ok more than a few) beers before going to the Psychedelic Furs gig, Sunday, I'm going to attempt gardening and then more work in the car in the evening.

Mark Albrighton Posted June 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 15, 2018 Go for a six mile run tomorrow. Saturday night will be my first without parental duties in over a week. The plan is to meet my mate who haven’t seen since the snow prevented the QPR game. The evening will mainly involve drinking beer and not discussing Villa. Sunday, it’s father’s day. Not sure what I’ll be doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Am away in my motorhome near Whitchurch in Shropshire. First time in 6 weeks due to a screwed gearbox. Now it looks like the glow plugs are on the fritz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted June 29, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 29, 2018 Heading out to the Jewellery Quarter on Saturday. A few of my mates haven’t been drinking there before, so I’m looking forward to showing them some of the pubs that can be found there. The clifden, the church, rose villa, the button factory and maybe the red lion will all be receiving our custom. Hopefully we’ll have time for the Victoria before the last train back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some great places there. The Clifden is fantastic but always so busy. Church has a wonderful (and big roof) terrace. Been too long since I did a JQ crawl.

We shall battle through. Not been on the roof terrace at the Church before, apparently I tried celebrating new year’s eve there a while back, but I’ve no memory of it. It’s a great place. I’m far from an expert in knowing what places in Birmingham to go out in, but these days whenever a night out there is suggested, I’m immediately thinking of the JQ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to find a table on the roof terraces at both The Church and The Button Factory. The Red Lion was quiet, the Rose Villa was fairly chilled and enjoyable, caught almost all of the evening game between those two. The Victoria was decent too. Overall marks for the evening, a fairly solid 8/10 I think. I was nursing a moderate hangover this morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
