Back on My Feet

I was a little nervous as I ventured back into town on my own again today, as I resumed venue-visiting duties. I'm still not 100% so took it relatively easy and clocked up another 12 places, mostly branching off from Nicholson Street in the city centre.

My health prevented me from enjoying some Deuchars but an ever so reliable friend generously took on the task of beer drinking for me and concluded that two places deserved Deuchars of the day.

The first of these is Captain's Bar (venue 62) where we spent a good wee while chatting gibberish to the very friendly and welcoming staff, with some entertaining live music in the background.

The other venue with a cracking pint was the Southsider (venue 148) where it was just starting to really fill up as people headed out for their Saturday nights out. Again, the bar staff were very pleasant and one even filled me in on all the latest football scores after telling me he had just poured my friend 'the perfect pint' Deuchars. And fair play to him, it was a top notch pint.

Now that I'm back up and running, I will start having bigger and bigger days so that hopefully I can complete the challenge.
