We all had to pick places out of a hat. I think I chose the best..a pub!! So off I went to Whetherspoons in stockport. And here is what my day consisted of....

Hayley Parle Beer Garden - Wetherspoons Stockport 21st April 12:00

Its sunny and very warm. Everybody seems happy, I think its because of the weather. Pints of lager, glass of red wine, people are drinking at this time on a weekday. Names have been scratched into the table. Old man shouts Steven, Steven walks in with a huge Rotweiler, who gets annoyed by a wasp. The wind is picking up as the sun has hidden behind a cloud, everybody still seems happy though. The garden is equipped with palm trees and exotic plants. I think they are trying to make it look like a paradise. Not doing a very good job at it though. Some scally bloke has jus spat on the floor. Ewwww he has just done it again, that is disgusting. Some bloke has just introduced himself to me as “love doctor” this must be the kind of people this place attracts. It must be dinner time as it is getting busier. Oh a pink ball has jus flown over the fence and bounced on a table, luckily it didn’t knock any ones pint over. Oh love doctor is now saying he is spiderman and is attempting to climb over the wall. The ball got kicked back over. The Rotweiler isn’t happy. He is getting shouted at. Chit Chat is all you hear. Think it is time to have something to eat. The menu is quite good, pretty cheap. Hmmmm what should I have?? Stop swearing stupid man. The floor is mouldy, how nice. Oh god scally grandma is bladdered. One of the windows on the door to the pub is smashed. I wonder how that happened? Probably someone drunk and fighting. The beer garden is surrounded by an unstable looking fence. I think if someone leant on it, it would surely just fall down. I think there must be a school near by, you can hear children playing, that must be where the ball came from. Ooo someone has just ordered double cheese burgers, they look well tasty. “Love doctor” is trying to steal them. The waitress isn’t impressed. A god dam hover fly is doing my head in!! Just go away!! Oh my god the bloke who was swearing has just got some brand new nike trainers out of a Matalan bag and put them on, they have still got the security tag hanging off. Blatantly just been robbed. Seriously where are we?? “Eggy is after ya!!!”

Sat inside now, it is a lot quieter in here. The table we are sat at is really untidy. There are mugs and tea bags everywhere. It smells nice in here, its the food. Someone is tidying it up now, about time. The carpet is full of stains and so are the chairs we are sat on. There is no music on, which I think is why it seems very quiet. You can hear the IT box playing, Deal or No Deal. Just ordered some Nachos with chilli, it had best be nice. It isn’t as eventful inside as it was in the beer garden. Auww some old man is struggling carrying his dinner. Food is here, that was fast, these nachos look like they have been sat waiting around for a while. The chilli is nice, not too spicy but also not much heat. These Nachos taste like cardboard. I am really let down. Two women have just come in with new born babies. They are tiny. The television is on sky news channel. It would be more useful if they had the sound up but still all you can here is the IT box, which is strange for a pub because usually its chit chat you can here. The scally bloke who enjoys spitting is on his way to the bar, he is on crutched, this will be fun watching him carry a beer on crutches! I wonder what he has done? I think he has probably been shot. After being let down by the nachos I think I will have a chocolate fudge cake. Cant be let down by the chocolate fudge cake. Hmm i can smell curry that smells nice. The bloke on crutches is back, he is carrying them in one hand and the pint in the other. That is pointless. These fudge cake is beautiful, it is warm and really fudgey. Ice cream. The waitress was a bit rude though. Its not too difficult to smile. I think its time to go now. The weather outside looks nice again woooo.
