And on to the latest venue, the Masons Arms in High Street, Solihull. Which has been expanded to a huge venue with room after giant room all the way back to the garden . . . and a tiny alcove with two tiny tables reserved for nonsmokers. Which is no use at all since the alcove is surrounded by a smoking area and there's no ventilation.
Our meal would have been good value except for some arsehole smoker who despite the almost empty room chose to sit next to us just to exercise his right to inflict his filthy habit on us.
