Just been making some changes to my blog layout.

I wanted to add some new features and rearrange existing ones. I also changed the overall theme and font. 

Any suggestions welcomed.

Two Brewery Taprooms in Windsor

 23/3/23

My first visits to 2 taprooms in Windsor.

 First was the Unit4 taproom at Windsor & Eton Brewery.

 Nearly there. It was a 10-15 minutes walk from Windsor & Eton Riverside station. My walking route was via the riverside avoiding the town centre and castle area.

Its next to the railway line from Windsor to Slough.

An unasuming entrance leads to a large bar area.

The wide choice of beers:

My first two beers:

Three photos of the actual brewey:

Then a 5 minutes walk to the Two Flints.

After the photo stop I arrived.

The brewey 

Another view of the brewery from the mezzanine floor.

I will be returning to these two places later in the year as another brewery is planned to open next door to Three Flints.

A great choice of beers brewed on the premises and guest beers in both places made this a very enjoyable few hours.

The beers wot I had are shown below:

London Bridge station (high level)

 14/3/23

Waiting for my train to Waterloo East I took a few photos here.

Since a £1 billion refurbishment completed in 2018 the station is much brighter with step free access to all platforms.

Not much more to say except I hope you like the photos.
