29th June – Birmingham

Well, the end of the month when my set of Wetherspoon vouchers are about the expire so where can we go to use them up, somewhere with a number of JD's places close togther, ah yes , B'ham.

On getting to the city, first port of call was actually the Yard of Ale which was fairly quiet (it was mod-afternoon) and over a pint of Marston's Merrie Monk we settled in to watch the end of Japan v Paraguay in the world cup (not exactly a thriller!) - see later post (18th November 2010.)

Onwards, and upwards (quite literally as its the only way out of the pub and on to our first Wetherspoon, the Square Peg where Batemans Salem Porter was selected along with food (I went for the smoked haddock& mozzarella fishcakes (With spring onion, in a creamy sauce) with chips.

Next was Wetherspoons inside pardise place with Oracle from Salopian being my choice.

Finally it was into the Brier Rose for Shardlow's Hit the Spot.

Then back to wait for the train at New Street and watching the mice running about the platform.
