British Pubs : A Page A Day Calendar


Each year I buy Isobel a calendar for Christmas, one of those which features a different picture every day. Being Isobel, her favourite is always something like a "Dog A Day" or "A Cute Puppy A Day" but there are other offerings in the same series featuring such things as shoes or handbags, cats or flowers. I have always quite fancied having one of these for myself, but as yet I have been able to find one entitled "A Pub A Day". But when you are retired and feckless and with nothing better to do with your life, there is nothing to stop you creating one. Here is today's photograph. I will try and drop in again at points throughout the year.
