for many a year so can't comment on the beers on offer now. I've never walked along the canal there either, but I can't imagine it's very pleasant, to be honest. It would be about a two mile walk, I'd say, if you really wanted to do it.
...never forget when I stumbled out of a pub one Sunday afternoon. Blinded by the light, a little worse for wear and a touch befuddled, I thought I was hallucinating as a bloke came riding up Ealing Rd on the back of an elephant.
Madman drummers bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin, the calliope crashed to the groundSome all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot snappin' his fingers clappin' his hands And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand
Now Scott with a slingshot finially found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand And some bloodshot forget-me-not said daddy's within earshot save the buckshot, turn up the band
And she was Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tired She's gonna make it through the night
Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone, that's where they expect it least" And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner, watching the young girls dance And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone, reminding him of romance
Or any other Berks, I've been recommended the Hook & Tackle - a pleasant walk along the canal to the ground - allegedly. Do they serve Barley Wine?
