Another Evening in the Neville Bull

What a difference from my last recorded visit to Kent. Once again we trekked across the QEII bridge into Kent to meet an old friend (he will remind me that I am older than him now, for a few months anyway). The pub has not changed much, the food is still very good, and the guest beer was enjoyable too. The topics of conversation this time were more limited, as there was more catching up to do. Also we could not sit outside, as the weather doesn't match that in July, it has been a wet May in England, especially in the south east. Still it was a good evening, one that I look forward to repeating at the end of the summer, before the dark evenings arrive, perhaps we will be able to sit outside then.
So with the family and career news shared we turned our attention to the church, and that was about as far as we got. Then it was back up the M20, through the tunnel and home - relaxed and refreshed.

Great Night Out

Last night a friend and I traveled over the bridge into darkest Kent to see an old friend (well almost as old as me anyway). We picked him up and traveled to a little country pub (The Nevill Bull), enjoyed some very nice food and a couple of pints of beer. Most importantly some very good conversations about the old days, the C of E and its bishops, the new Dr Who and a vast range of other topics. Thoroughly chilled out and back very late I slept well in the heat and humidity for the first time this week.

Must do it again soon.
