That was Nigel Baroness, think he gave up about 10 years ago as he was fed up with Adnams. Sue used to scare us when we were teenagers. |

Sue went to run the Bell at Walberswick after the Greyhound. She had two lovely boxer dogs as I recall. She could be quite fierce when she was minded to though

57.5 Degrees of Pain
Spent many happy evenings in the Greyhound in the 1990s, including the night before I emigrated in 1999. Friends live nearby, they still do but I've only made it back to Suffolk twice in the 12 years that I've been back in the UK.

I have just asked on your blog what the pint was! Not one I am familiar with though!

I've been to a beer festival today. Can't remember the last beer festival I went to - obviously whenever it was was before March 2020 but I'm guessing my last festival before then might have been back end of 2019. Lots of local-ish breweries but found a couple I hadn't had before. Milestone Imperial was one which was OK but there was one from Leigh on Sea that was my favourite - Cockle Row Spit at 5.6%, an American style IPA which I wouldn't normally have gone for but I am glad I tried a half! |

If you are in Padstow, the Taste Of Padstow tasting rooms are worth visit. I particularly enjoyed the Pocket Rocket.

Had lunch in The Bell and found it a bit pricey. Also, done a bit of Adnams tasting down the road at The Anchor.

Lovely part of the world Surrey Phil - pubs are generally a bit more expensive though. The Bell at Middleton is not far away (also Adnams) and has a lovely garden on a sunny day.
