Dead Phone but Free Beer and Free Food

Hello Hello Hivians

Saturday on Hive means The Weekly BeerSaturday Challenge and this is week 362!

Seriously good going and thanks @detlev for doing this and having the BEER community.

It is a whole bunch of fun, so check out The #BeerSaturday Challenge - Week 362

Let's go drinking 🍻

This is all happened on Thursday, I had got an email earlier this week about a side hustle I do from time to time.

Mrs T's last work day before we go on holiday was Thursday so I had arranged to get some free food and free beer for Thurday.

I would meet her in town and we would head to the pub.

All fine and dandy. I headed towards the bus station where I arranged to meet her after going to the bank and getting a few bits and bobs.

I was on my phone walking into town and it was raining. Fluff it thought I, after I listened to a couple of voice notes on WhatsApp I sent a message then put phone in my backback.

Once I was in town on the High St I got money from the ATM and went to see the time on my phone.

Wtf ... it was error and basically dead!

I could not get it started could not even get it to factory reset...

Ah fluff it, I did not want to be late so went to the bus station. I stood at the entrance and then saw one bus that Mrs T gets if her normal is late.

Then I saw her normal bus, no Mrs T on it. Oh fluff now what, I never saw her in the Station or at any of the stands... So I walk along the High St and into the pub ... No Mrs T!

Now I was wet as I had forgotten my umbrella... Back to the Station I went ...

Lo and behold who did I see with steam coming out of her ears ....

I was calling and calling you and about to go home!

After explaining what happened on the way to the pub we did have a good old laugh!

Here I was back again!

As you can see the pub is called The Robert Nairn and it is part of the Wetherspoon's Chain of pubs.

So called summer, this was not a warm day, it had been raining and so nobody was sitting outside!

If I hadn't had to take pictures for the side hustle, I would have had my beer and food already, but I had to have pictures and Mrs T had the camera!

First things first ~ THE BEER

We are required to order a pint of Cornona, check it comes in the branded glass with a wedge of lime on the rim

So yes it passed!

The other drink as you can see is a Leffe and yes it is meant to be in a branded glass as well!

I must admit I am partial to a Leffe, it feels quite light and has a wee kick to it!

So those were the beers, but what about the food!

Me after all that walking back and forth in fluffing rain was fluffing famished so I opted for a large mixed grill!

There seemed to be meats buried under meats!
The onion rings were spot on, and I chose the healthy option of a baked potato! Darn glad I did, it was all cooked to perfection...

Mrs T was in the mood for chicken, and opted for a wee chicken fillets burger...

Now being American she does love her chicken wings and these did not disappoint with a lovely dark flavoured crispy skin.

When it comes to cheap pub food and cheap drinks you cannot beat a Wetherspoons and when the chef on duty is in a good mood, the food really is very good.

This was perfect.

Mrs T is not a big drinker and rarely has a beer, so after half a pint and all the food had been demolished it was over to me for the remainder!

Empty plates and empty glasses! 10/10 from me!

This is #BeerSaturday week and I would like to invite @coquicoin to write a post in any language about beer with at least 3 pictures.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!
