Shrewsbury, Shropshire:
Bit of a quandary here: first impressions were great: a good welcome, Oracle, Jaipur & Citra on the pumps, friendly staff who dealt with the one annoying drunk very quickly. Large covered-over courtyard at the rear where the music was more our taste: all good.
The next day, less so. Football on, and on loud, on the multitudes of TVs, blokes shouting over the TVs and standing in the way. Damn, I hate football in pubs.
