Broadstairs Tuesday

A bit of a grotty day today weather wise. Rocco and I had an early morning walk along the coast in the drizzle:

After a hearty breakfast in the hotel, we headed off to the Hornby Visitor Centre, now renamed “Hornby Wonderworks”. All very pretty and full of publicity about Hornby, but fewer model railways than before:

We then popped in to have a chat with Northdown Brewery (who are on the same industrial estate as Hornby) – they are one of the suppliers to Orpington Liberal Club.

Then time for lunch at an excellent Marstons pub, sat in the middle of a retail park:

We then visited Gadds Brewery just up the road, again a regular supplier to Orpington Liberal Club.

Then back to the hotel for a cup of tea!

Later, we wandered to a local pub selling Gadds beer, but it was VERY noisy so we headed back to the hotel for a light supper, complete with an excellent Shephard Neame Low Alcohol Beer on keg, Noughty Bear.

Finally, the rain stopped, so we had a evening walk along the coast:

(Spot the dog!)
