Haha this was such a fun read.
Honestly, the gravestone story had me grinning… I guess it’s only in England would a TV prop end up as a permanent feature in a pub garden! 😂 The food sounds proper comforting too, and I had to laugh at your pooch wanting table service. That is classic dog behavior. Sounds like a memorable stop, even with the slightly spooky dining companion.
Thank you @teknon. It was definitely one to tell your grandchildren .... if I had any. 😁
