There is a Full Moon Pub

There is something I recently learned from this book and which I cannot get out of my head: there is a pub called The Full Moon in Cholesbury. Now let's just that sink in. I know there are other pubs named like this one. I mean a quick Google search can easily help you find more. But this specific Full Moon is fairly close to us. And, from the pictures I could see, it looks absolutely lovely, an old fashioned pub like I love them. And of course there is the name. That's why I want to visit it one day: how cool is that name? I don't now how accessible it is from where we are, but I want to visit it very badly now. And have walks nearby of course, but this is now my new quest: to visit it. Let's say instead of a pub crawl, it is a pub quest.

Pub Walks

The treasures I can find in the local bookshop, even when it is not great literature. So I went there last week and bought this book, as a spur of the moment thing. I bought it for two reasons: 1)we don't walk enough. We used to walk a lot, but we don't anymore and this is a shame. 2)I want to discover more pubs when we go out, which we don't do often enough. And what is better than taking a digestive walk after a good meal or a drink in a pub? Hence, this book. My wife fears it willjust gather dust on the bookshelves. It might, but at least now I have a visual reminder that there are places to visit. And I have no excuses. That is my idea behind this purchase anyway.
