On a ring road, next to a pizza takeaway, overlooked by blocks of flats is their one tied pub, the Bush Inn.

I must have driven past it 1000 times without even noticing.
This all changes as I get another tick in the Good Beer Guide 2017.
It doesn't look too much but nice etched windows hints at the Victorian Age. Internet research is even less promising. A landlord ousted for a seven man brawl and losing his licence.
Still, with just two ticks required to finish our county capital, I need to be brave.
Through the door into a single roomed pub. Choosing a Canon Royall Teddy Bear may not show the correct level of manliness, so I look at the options, ignore the cider and go for a North Cotswolds Shagweaver, breaking with tradition and ordering it by it's full name.

One free seat, which I take. A band setup - guitarist and a lady singer. Unfortunately, I cannot stay for long but their rehearsal does prompt me to listen to Melody Gardot on the way home.
She had that kind of voice and it's a shame I couldn't have stayed to hear the set.
