1140hrs and already fairly busy, 3 drinkers at the bar and two seated however the centre of the pub was a temporary creche with mother and noisy restless child. We decided to sit outside where it was quieter.

A morning visit with the daylight still searing my eyes. A bus tour for ChrisE's 17th leap year birthday celebrations. Extended since my last visit and no further developments towards getting the Sunshine Brewery up and running. The Guv worked hard servicing the multiple orders for beer from thirsty souls.

A very wet Tuesday, I walked from the bus stop near the Blue & White Café which turned out to be a mistake as people were driving like maniacs in terrible conditions and causing huge splashes about fifteen feet high as they drove through partial floods at speed. The pub/café has been enlarged since my last visit and now boasts some bus seats and tables and a 1960s cocktail cabinet with Britvic artefacts. Only the one cask ale available for the quiet periods in January.
Tonbridge - Coppernob | 3.80 |  | Very good, I stayed for a second one. |
