An idiots guide to an idiot: Berkshire Arms

Had the chance of a night away with the Memsahib which is always nice but had to tackle the dear old M25 on a Friday afternoon ,only got held up for about half an hour but it seemed longer. Reached our destination in the village of Midgham about 4pm. The sun was shining, the beer garden beckoned , as they do and of course we gave in . Greene King London Glory was my tipple and very good it was too. An amber beer with a good hoppy taste, 4.1% so ok to have a couple I think!
Late afternoon turned to evening and we repaired to our room to change for dinner. Table booked for 8pm though we were able to sit down a little earlier, all the staff were great. Efficient and friendly, I stayed on London Glory mainly because it was good but also their other offerings were IPA that I can have anywhere really and Purple Reign that wasn't on. Memsahib had bitter shandy but then went onto coke.
Our starter was an easy decision, baked Camembert and what do you know , they actually had gluten free bread for the Memsahib, things are looking up! This was really good & very filling! To the mains then. I was nearly my usual predicable self & had fish and chips but in a moment of inspiration I went for the chicken and chorizo pie with sweet potato chips and veg. Another plus point for this establishment was the fact that T had a choice of at least half a dozen items to choose from! Doesn't sound like a big deal? The next time you're out check how many vegetarian & wheat free dishes are on the menu.
T plumped for the fish pie which looked and smelt delicious. Well, we thoroughly pigged out on the mains but of course it would have been rude not to at least peruse the pud menu. We were both pretty stuffed so a nice brandy liquer coffee seemed like a good idea.....which it was. Replete and now tired we called it a day & went to bed. Of course by next morning we were hungry again and tucked in a full English for me & poached eggs on wheat free toast for T. Then home to load up the car to take some more of Garys gear over to his new abode while they are away. However on returning home I found a cupboard I hadn't looked in with more of his stuff still to go. Bugger!
