Churnet Valley Railway General Discussion

Joules at the Cock taphouse ?

 

Not quite on the line now but The Yew Tree at Cauldon is worth a visit.

 

I think yours and my idea of a day well spent might differ slightly from the average family day out?

 

Fair enough !

 

I say this without a hint of irony, but Leek has actually become a bit of a food and drink hotspot.

Plenty of good, independent places in town.

And anywhere with a titanic brewery pub is worth a visit…

 

Is that the Roebuck ? I love a plum porter !

 

You’ve really fallen below my expectations with that. Most toilet cleaners are better than that

 

….. and your choice?

 

I’ve never tasted toilet cleaners. Have you?

 

My palet is wide ranging, so no offence taken.

 

Well, enjoyed a great day rail, ale, trailing again. Seemed busy Saturday so hopefully it’s done well for the railway.

The beer cards seemed to go down a storm and bought even more people this year and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Fingers crossed next year may be able to get on/off at leek in some form or fashion and will happily contribute to the local hospitality economy. Although given what I saw this year I get the feeling it could get extremely busy!
