You've decided to start early. Maybe too early in fact; you've been to see a Saturday afternoon rugby game at the rugby club and figured going to The Ship is actually a much better idea than going home and eating some dinner before commencing a big night of drinking. With one of the better pub gardens in Bedford, a quintessential English feel due to the piano and overhead wooden beams, plus a delightful array of regulars, The Ship offers you a great place to enjoy your first beer of the night. Just know you won't have any memory of that first beer when you're drunk as a skunk later on.
I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
