Pics From Yesterday

[jazzy_dave]

Yesterday was a much warmer day than of late and one in which it was a joy to travel down to Brighton for the day. I had breakfast at Spoons in Sittingbourne, and then a beer at the Muggelton Inn n Maidstone.



I took some pics walkimg towards the Evening Star pub, including one of my fave second hand record stores, and another art covered junction box.





Had a couple of beers at the Evening Star pub and when I finished my visit in Hove I had another beer at the Wetherspoons pub in George Street, Hove. I also popped in to Fine Records to see Julian.




I managed to use the same ticket all day long, which was a bit of a result. So when I arrived in Tunbridge Wells I had a pint at the Bedford pub.

It will ber very busy in brighton today as it is the annual Gay Pride Day.

Love the photos! Is the Muggleton a proper inn with rooms to let upstairs? And is the Pond a gay pub or just celebrating the day?

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

The Muggleton is no longer an inn but is part of the Wetherspoons chain of pubs. The Pond is not a gay pub, although thee are some gay pubs in Brighton, mostly Kemp Town end. They are just celebrating the day , as most of the pubs bars and venues will be doing so this weekend in the city.

You do look to be having lovely weather. The Pond looks like a good spot to watch the world go by from.

The Muggleton Inn looks like it use to be a big old bank. :)

What does that mean on those buildings that it says "Free House"?

LOVE that junction box. Funny...

I think it might have been a bank as the company has converted banks to pubs before. A "free house" is a pub that is not tied to a brewer. For example, the Dover Castle Inn in my village is tied ti Shepherd Neame and hence can only sell their beers. A free house pub can sell any beer from any brewer across the land. That is it in a simple nutshell.

WOW, do brewers have a lot of their own pubs?

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Quite alot of them do, especially the bigger companies.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

UGH...
Thank goodness for the Free Houses...

Lovely photos. I love the one of the man on the steps. And I see Muggles walking in and out of that inn!

Tunbridge Wells...isn't that where Jo Brand was?

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

True. Jo Brand does live in Tunbridge wells. I am expecting Harry Potter to walk into the Muggleton Inn any day.

[kabuldur.livejournal.com]

Thought so! Funny to see film footage of the place you hand photographed. And it looked exactly the same!

Hehe, Harry Potter might at that :)
