Late breaking news!

The Mermaid isn't going to be closed next week but the week after. This is straight from Jackie who was browsing this very blog this evening and rushed (okay - she didn't rush) down to tell me knowing that I (okay she didn't know) was in the bar. Anyways, open next week - closed week commencing 13/02 - got that? Good! You have this before the Kentish Gazette!

7 careful considerations:

I'm impressed! That'll give you plenty of time to get the Guinness in, then :-)

Is this the last chance saloon?

The strange thing is that last night, as I left the pub, it all seemed fuzzy! the one week delay is going to cause Steve and Jackie some problems though - beer deliveries cancelled and so forth.

Leaving pub. Fuzzy. No news there then.

Oh, and I'm sure you'd be the first to volunteer to take accept the beer delivery on their behalf.

Yes Methel - even within the tear in the time-space continuum that Bishopsbourne occupies next week is WC 13/02 and it's the following week that the pub is shut. A regular test with patients with dementia is "Do you know what day it is?" - I'd fail even if the broadened it out to what month it is.

GW - Of course I've offered my services in looking after any beer which needs a good home, it's the neighbourly thing to do isn't it?
