Worcestershire Greened
A walk that's long me on my "to do" list. Using Public Transport to go from Droitwich to Bromsgrove. Since when did Public Transport get so expensive? An 11 minute rail journey from Kidderminster to Droitwich costing as much per minute as first class on a 747. Probably.
The walk was a navigational breeze. You sacrifice any interest by near total canal walking. If I had left later in the day, it could have been a fine pub crawl, with the Railway Inn, Eagle and Sun, Boat and Railway and the Queens Head all on route.

My post walk target is the final Good Beer Guide 2024 Tick in Worcestershire. Just in time for the new release in a week or so's time.
Monday lunchtime an odd time to try an get a drink in the UK. I'm not sure even I can endorse pubs keeping open. 45 Minutes as the only punter in the Hop Pole, with a bored looking barman and a soundtrack that grated. They cannot have generated enough profit to have even covered the juke-box being on.
No complaints on the beer front. An impressively good Woodcote Hop Till You Drop. Especially when you consider when the last purchase was made.
