Beer on a cold day

Kato · 27-11-2023, 10:10 AM

The Kent-ie’s said We are going to have a little drink in honour of BigOZ at one of his favourite spots
One die hard Mr Gazza making what I reckon was a 230-mile round trip from Norwich for an Orange Juice shows immense dedication to the cause, I make that around 2.469ml of OJ per mile

Apparently, the Bermondsey Beer Mile is a loose amalgamation of brewery bars and bottle shops, located along a stretch of railway arch that's approximately 1 mile longer than the name suggests.
The one thing they have in common is that they're all open at roughly the same time on a Saturday afternoon, giving those who fancy some exercise the chance to indulge in a rather bracing stroll within deepest, darkest and decidedly un-picturesque, west London. ---- As long as you can find your way between all the bars, of course.

I don’t actually know how far we got? possibly renamed as the Bermondsey 1/4 mile which I’m pretty sure was down to the fact that 4 hours in we had only made just past the second stop !!!!!!!

Great Day, Great Catch up, The Beer was tremendous

Mr Gazza · 27-11-2023, 01:07 PM

You say die-hard, but I thought I'd wimped out by borrowing my daughters car.
The heated long johns and vest that I ordered for the ride, arrived this morning!

It was well worth the trip to see all you warm hearted people. I still struggle with the irony of going to see someone who has departed, but I felt him there with his good friends. To be honest I thought I saw him out of the corner of my eye.. Strange that innit?

I hope you've found peace Oz.
Spread the love.

Thanks for the reminder. In my diary.

yes, by some margin, however driving to a brewery is not always a good plan ;-)

Mr Gazza · 29-11-2023, 09:21 AM

It's on the doorstep of the congestion zone and that's the one to avoid.
March is know to be a little inclement, so I'll have to give my transport some thought for this one.

Kato · 29-11-2023, 11:30 AM

It's on the route we were traveling last weekend no idea if we made it that far

slob · 29-11-2023, 04:14 PM

we did, i think it was our last stop

jerry · 30-11-2023, 02:15 PM

spose I could get a train ???

Stinger101 · 01-12-2023, 09:44 PM

Well done all. Looking in from here makes me feel sad for the loss of a marvellous chap, but glad he had so many friends that thought highly of him. I'd like to make the March date so make sure a post is made well in advance.
