Paid £3 for a pint of lager in Brum centre last week. The Railway Inn. 

Ok, it was like Mos Eisley cantina in there, but beggars can't be choosers. 

 We went for a walk with the dog down the canal earlier, stopped at a pub for a drink.

2x half pint Pepsi Max

1x J20

1x Pint of San Miguel

£13.65, this is a big standard pub in Tamworth. I’m convinced I was mis-charged.

Well, the pint is roughly a fiver i'd imagine? 

£2.50 each for a couple of small pepsis and £3.65 for a J20? Soft drink prices are crazy in most pubs.

If you ever visit here and want to try one, be aware that it's pronounced 'jay-two-oh', and not 'jay-twenty'.

Oh, I thought it was just you and the dog out for a walk. Thought you were a bit thirsty.

I had to double check I hadn’t walked into the Belfry by mistake.

I will definitely be visiting again. I will definitely not want to try one (after reading what it is) 😉

Not even the ones full of glitter? Because that's what's really important in a drink... Glitter.

When you finally cave in and change the batteries in the TV remote, oh my. 

I was on the verge of buying a new TV last week because I was so pissed off with how slow it was.

Then I changed the remote batteries.

You get to see some nice classic cars being driven on a sunny bank holiday. I saw some MGBs (of course), a red Rover SD1, which sounded like a V8, a Wolseley 16/60, and a 356 Speedster just by Hopwas, which will please the air cooled aficionados @chrisp65 @blandy

I made a note of the reg, and found it online:

Not sure if its a genuine one, or a resto-mod, but looked lovely.

For some reason I had a crap night’s sleep. Wierd dream arguing with an immigration officer who wouldn’t let me into the uk. Anyway, decided to get up, opened the curtains and yay! A swift flew past the window. First sighting of the year.

Mobile AC man came out on Monday, all good, no leaks, even got a £19 discount.

Now the sun can blast away all it likes, I can drive in the cool :)

Once you've added the big gif, click the 'Source' button in the top left of the text input box, then find the width variable and reduce the number to something more manageable.
