Bank Holiday Syndrome

One of the strange things about bank holidays is that no-one knows your opening hours; whether you've got the day off or closing early; you can never count on your regular services. We popped into the Gate Hangs Well to try our local pub quiz; but found it postponed owing to the holiday festivities. Instead of taking to the surprisingly vacant dartboard (which was probably a wise decision given the number of pubs that we’d visited), our eyes fell on a box of dominoes. We found a table, and we were even permitted to use one of the pub’s official domino boards; a square wooden tile with framed sides to stop the dominoes from tumbling over. It was good fun despite winning only one game, and the best bit was mixing them up at the beginning; of which the other tables outdid us proudly by making as much noise as possible.
