A few years ago, while I was working up in Harrogate, my friend Alan and I refined the art of pub lunch. At Buzz, Jason and I achieved pub week, which was no mean feet. However, we could only dream of the system Alan and I put in place. Sometimes with other colleagues, sometimes not, we got it down to a schedule.
| Day | Pub | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | Smiths Arms | Nice way to start the week. Food was okay. Mostly, it was close. |
| Tuesday | Squinting Cat | Quiet, plenty of tables, big range of food and the barman was a character. |
| Wednesday | Black Swan, Fat Badger | Usally Black Swan, but occasionally we would drive into the centre for the Fat Badger. |
| Thursday | Old Spring Well, Pine Martin | Good specials, though roadworks severely hampered our journey times, in which case we would fall back to the Pine Martin. |
| Friday | Square & Compass | Bit of a drive to North Rigton, but worth it for the food. |
This went on for months. We managed two team lunches in my current team this week. That was great, but I can only dream of the glory days…
