Orkney Wave Breaker Blonde at the Lynch Gate Tavern, Wolverhampton

John apologises but explains that he’s been invited out to someone’s party for the evening, but he’s determined to give me as much of a guest of honour’s tour as he can. He heads home to change while we pop into a city centre pub to wait for him. From the outside, the pub looks like an out-of-place townhouse, but once you’re in it resembles something out of a Harry Potter movie. It just screams comfort and security with plush lounge chairs in both the upstairs and downstairs bars, though it’s annoying to have to fetch beer from the upstairs bar and bring it back down again when you’ve got a nice spot. I spy some local produce and splash out on a round of pork pies with the drinks. We chat amicably about ourselves and what we get up to, then it’s time to board a train to Birmingham where John will alight at a different station and find us.
