Outdoors pub lunch - in February?
“What about going out for a walk and having lunch at that pub?” Erica said. I was sitting at my desk listening to a BBC Radio 4 programme online.
“Why not?” I said. “Great idea”.
It’s been a glorious day today. The sun actually had some warmth in it and the sky was cloudless as we walked along Robbery Bottom Lane and along the field path to the White Horse at Burnham Green.
When we got there, it seemed just right to sit outside in the beer garden, next to the pub’s duckpond.
Outdoors, warm sun, food, and it’s early February. What’s to complain about?
Lunch finished and paid for, we completed our circuit through Harmergreen Woods, Robbery Bottom Lane and back home.

Gotta love those English place-names — “Robbery Bottom Lane” for example. We have some remarkable place-names in New Zealand — particularly when they’re translated from Maori into English. You’d be surprised how biological some of them can be. Speaking of things New Zealand, that’s a fine looking harakeke by the pub’s duck-pond.
Steve, many thanks for the link to the page about the harakeke plant. I had no idea what the plant was. It just looked nice, reflected in the duck pond.
I really wanted to live on Robbery Bottom Lane, just for the address, but we didn’t like any of the houses that were for sale there at the time. Rosecroft Lane is a nice name, though.
