First thoughts was that the Birmingham Christmas Market was a bit crap compared to Edinburgh. However get up to the city hall square & it seems okay.

Spoons Hotel in Birmingham. Seems good. Couldn't hear what she said when I checked in, so hope I didn't miss anything important. Have had food and a couple of ciders.
Quick butchers at the German Christmas Market they have here now.

Know some people are obsessed by the carpets in spoons, but have never seen this before

C2C trains were starting to introduce new trains into service. Now they have been re-nationised, will we still get more of them?

Credit to Forest Green. Good pre match fan area. Obviously only vegan food, so not wanting any. Guy in front of me in the ground said a pie wasn't that bad but still didn't eat it.

When in the west country, got to have a 'proper' pasty. Was delicious 😋, best thing tasted for ages. So much better than you get from a supermarket

Pubs got Christmas decorations up. Bit early

Usually crap at using maps but found the pub using Google maps, okay
Pleased with myself 😊

Put some 'ready to bake' bread in the oven & forgot about them.

Also made a cup of tea when meant to make coffee.

Like being at the back but is a bit of a climb

Getting lunch
Place packed, didn't think was going to get a table, but timed it right as someone was leaving & grabbed the table.
Must be the best painting which you will find in a pub

Unsurprisingly, it's a little bit more expensive in London
