The Six Bells at Horley
has been on our calendar for ages and comes with some notable history
relative to our visits here. This is an olde-worlde themed pub at the end
of a out-of-the-way narrow lane near Gatwick on the banks of the river
Mole. One year we turned up and they had no glasses so were not able to
supply beer. Another year we arrived to find them closed due to a suspect
murder hunt so we had to get the beer from Tesco down the road and
serve it from the back of a Rolls Royce Shooting brake. Yet another year
with again no beer, largely because the kitchen had caught alight
and and the pub had burnt down. Following year not finished the
rebuild, and then the Covid era. Fortunately this time all functioned well
and
their car park filled with 26 of our proper vehicles as well as some
moderns.
So with an earlier stat time, and the weather on our side, - a lovely
evening. |
