Spirit
“My next stop is the nearest village, Oldfield, situated about two miles along a winding and narrow country lane. Oldfield is a small place, very pretty, and most important to me, it has a pub with a decent sized car park. I tuck Alice away in the far corner of the parking area of The Fleece and head into the bar to seek out the landlord, one Robert Reynolds according to the sign above the door.
Robert, or Bob as he’s known, is a nice enough man. I learn that he’s an ex-police officer who re...tired after twenty five years and invested his pension lump sum in a country pub. He runs a quiet enough house, and is amenable to my proposition that he let me work in his bar for a few evenings a week in exchange for my meals, and his permission to park Alice on his forecourt. This, or a variation on it, is a system which serves me pretty well in locations where I need to take up temporary residence whilst I’m working on a project. I’m experienced in bar work and waitressing, it’s how I financed myself through university for the most part, though I did also max out my student loan.MoreLess
