12:30 Surprisingly quiet for a city centre pub. Once again all beers from the Marston's stable. Interesting discussion with the barman about various beer glasses. The glasses supplied for the Stella Cidre are grotesque and must cost a fortune, conversely the latest half pint Stella stemmed glass is a wonderful piece of good design.

14:30 Not too busy. Interesting selection of pump clips behind the bar but sadly on this occasion only beers from the Marston's stable on sale.
