Up the Worth

Local and wild

The Kings

I love the Fleece in Haworth and will never forget my first visit, on a Wednesday night in the spring of 2005. I'm not sure but guess that's when I had my first ever pint of Tim Taylor Ram Tam. My local in Derbyshire served Landlord and I knew it was brewed in Keighley, but I had no idea Taylors had a range of beer

Since moving we've been to the Fleece a few times but I'm really enjoying the Branwell stout in the Kings. The hospitality is first rate too. Me and our Tuss went in yesterday only to discover I only had a couple of pounds to my name. We were told we could have what we liked and could sort it out later. Now that to me is outstanding. I paid for a soft drink and we shared a bag of Seabrooks Beefys before nipping off home but we'll be back again soon (firstly to pay for the crisps!)

This weekend

KCAC Saturday walk

An email was circulated in the week inviting folk for a Saturday run out from Yorkshireman organizer Charlie's house followed by pie and peas. A walk was another option so me, Stef and Tussock went along. The walk around Bronte country was ace in spite of a very cold wind. The beer (and poppadoms for Tuss) in the Friendly at Stanbury was great. And the pie and peas provided by Andrea, Charlie's wife, were something else

Tussock, who'd done a decent walk the day before, had a little snooze in the pub and I had a cheeky baby cuddle with wee George afterwards. What a fabulous way to catch-up with friends old and new
