decent meal around Barry
Last mothers day, I took my mum for a afternoon tea at the old Schooner last year, now while that was ok ( she cant walk well, so it ticked a box that we could park right outside ) we went again early this year, the food quality wasnt the best, it was lukewarm at best and we wouldnt mind something a little better
so looking out for something decent, but not over the top
over to you CCMB

one of both my finest jobs and worse jobs
it was a solid oak kitchen ( even the units ) with lovely Oak worktops, it looked outstanding, real quality
BUT it also contained my worse moment in working life
Old Kitchen ripped out day 1, I start Day 2 and fit the base units, now the capped off water pipes are in the way of a unit, so I turn the water off, cut the pipes out of the way, think nothing more of it, get to the end of the day, my mate is picking me up for a boys bank holiday weekend away, he arrives at about 5.00 ( now thats working late on a Friday, normally 3.30 finish ) but I thought I would get more done, he pulls up, I go to my van to get 2 more end caps for the pipes, I have none, no drama, I can just use a olive from another compression fitting, I had none, mates getting itchy, we need to get away to catch the train, I phone around a few plumbers I knew, they are all in the pub so were not interested, I leave a note " Water still off, do not turn back on, see you Tuesday " and jumped in the car and left :angry: as we drove away I felt ashamed of myself, but got to Cardiff, got on the train and had a beer, all was forgotten
that was a low in my working life

I went back after they had all gone to work, left before they got home that day, thought it best if I kept my head down
in fact it was Thursday before they saw me next :hehe:
as it turned out, both sons had returned from Uni that weekend, so the house had 5 adults in :hehe:

The Wenvoe Arms is good for food with good access but it can be a bit pricey.

If you think £25 is a rip off for steak you clearly dont eat out much.
