BRIGG FOLK NOT AS HARDY AS WE THOUGHT



Mid-afternoon on Easter Monday we ventured down Grammar School Road South, Brigg, and glanced across at the extensive new White Horse pub beer garden, expecting it to be pretty busy with JD Wetherspoon customers, given the mild weather and the fact the sun was out.
We were surprised to see only two drinkers sitting outside - everyone else being within the hostelry.
The air temperature must have been well into the 50s on the F scale (we aren't all that good at degrees C) and we could only conclude that local drinkers are not as hardy as we thought.
Down Wrawby Street at the Black Bull, the extensive smoking and drinking shelter, to the rear of the premises, sustained damage during recent high winds and is currently al fresco, pending repairs to its roof.
We took the above picture of Wetherpoon's beer garden from Grammar School Road early on Sunday morning.

    Ha ha .. hardly surprising there was no one outside in 50F (10c)!

    Not exactly good BBQ weather Nigel.

    Balls and Brass Monkey come to mind.

    We start to whinge over here when it drops below 68F (20c)and quickly reach for the scarves and hats.

    Happy Easter
    from a mild Perth, Western Australia (22c today)

    Cheers

    Degrees C x 9/5 + 32 = Degrees F.....
    (Degrees F - 32) x 5/9 = Degrees C....
