gloomy Sunday

Sunday was cold and a bit rainy. We went for a walk around Lake Burley Griffin and it was good to do some exercise. This week has been rife with colds and flu - work, home, the bugs are everywhere. 


After our walk we retired to the Wig and Pen for a cleansing ale. The dark one is a 'winter spiced ale' (infused with cumquats, vanilla and truffles) - very meaty; the lighter one was a 'lunch with the monks' - smooth and tasting of honeyed fruit - it was almost like a liqueur. Let's hope this lovely brewery finds a new home when the landlords finally turf their tenants out.
