Today Bill Badger, my lovely hubby, reached his 40th Birthday (which he kept pretty quiet!) He has been working at the Great Welsh Beer Festival in Cardiff, and travelled back especially to go on the 'Arford By Bus' pub crawl. The Crown in Arford was my favourite, a very nice pub, had some excellent beer there and a nice plate of nachos. The Mill Tavern in Shottermill, West Sussex was very good as well.
Val and Matt picked us up at the final pub, the Crown and Cushion in Haslemere, and took us to West Chiltington Village Hall to see ColvinQuarmby. Val is friendly with the band, so asked for a request for Bill - and he kind of got two! Jerry mentioned people who turn 40 when he played 'I look the same but I have changed' and also dedicated 'it could only happen in America' to Bill as well!
We were also able to stop for a drink on the way back, thanks to the remarkably civilized new licencing hours. Cheers, Tony!
Hubby has got loads of cards and prezzies which just goes to show what a popular guy he is. Val and Matt gave beer and homemade (unusual!) chutneys, and Simon and Jane gave a cup-and-saucer and some liquorice. I gave a book and some 'taste the difference' bikkies which Bill seemed to appreciate!!
Happy birthday, dearest! xxxx
