It was raining hard this morning , and it was looking miserable out there, but with fortitude I decided to do the Ashford visit after all, since Margate can now be done tomorrow.
I first got into Faversham and had a pint of beer at The Leading Lighting. Well I thought as it was wet outside I might as well be wet inside.

So i had a pint of I Wantsum One Hop Amarillo Ale (4.3 % ABV).

Afterwards, i waited near the library for the 666 bus to Ashford.

It was still lashing down but i had some shelter near the library. Corn pipe at the ready.Bob Marley hat to keep my nut dry.

Arrived in Ashford and it had cleared. Stayed dry the rest of the day and the sun came out on my return.
In Ashford i walked through Park Mall and came across this shop.-

A paperback book that was turned into a TV drama i believe, and a couple of CDs - The Brand New Heavies "Brother Sister" (Acid Jazz) and Nitin Sawhney "Prophesy" (V2 Recordings).

I then had a pint of beer  in the Elephant pub  in Faversham -

In the end , despite the cold and the wet morning, it was a good day.

Wrong CD

Just checked the Brand New Heavies CD - it has the wrong CD in the case, still the same group but the CD is "The Best of The Acid Jazz Years" and not the one i thought it was. No wonder the track listings didn't match up to what was being played. Bugger it!

I usually check these things carefully, but i kinda slipped up today,lol.

Will put it aside till my next visit to Ashford.
