Managed to nab a few more pubs this afternoon, for the alone, although with the hot weather it was very tempting to go and sample a beer in each one… The Vine, Mountain View, London and the Grand]. There can’t be that many left now… can there? Although I still wanted to walk on past the Grand, that new colour scheme just doesn’t look good to me!
Pubs of Richmond: The Grand
Off to a teamRC17 dinner this evening, foolishly without checking the details! I’d been walking around all day thinking “seven o’clock”, it was only when I went to leave home that I actually read my scrawled note and saw that I should have been there at six! Then I couldn’t find the place, driving slowly down the Nepean highway trying to read street numbers while everyone else was trying to get where they’re going as fast as possible — I’d just about given up when I spotted the enormous sign advertising the place! Not to worry, I found it, the others had only just ordered so I snuck in with time to spare. Good food, and huge servings, I think I managed to get through about two-thirds of a bowl of gnocci. A good thing I didn’t order an entrée as well!
