750 Volt DC and a 07:00 Start – #mb10
June or the end of June 2019 see me return to Wessex. More correctly Dorchester and Weymouth. The 20th June was chosen as I could have most of my journey in the light.
However when you stop off at Sedgemoor South, M5 West Country and it’s just after 03:00, it is still dark. However the toilets are clean and the McD’s coffee cheap and good. Free O2 WiFi but tethering to ThreeUK LTE is a better bet.
Costa opens at 05:45 weekdays
Happy to be back in the land of 750 Volt 3rd rail trains. A guards strike on South Western Railways had little effect. Watch out for the Black Cat on the Weymouth bound platform.
Where the bar opens at 07:00 weekdays
Winning! I wonder if I’ll get a shout out from Retired Martin for finding a Pub with a 07:00 start?
50% local cask, which is good. LOCALE.
The Globe Inn – Weymouth
A bit of a Mod Pub
And it’s in the Good Beer Guide too. I little like stepping back in time but it had a very friendly welcome.
Moving on to The Doghouse. Weymouth’s finest and as far as I know micro pub. Next to the Library if you are a reader?
The Doghouse – Weymouth
And the Dog of The Doghouse, Ruddles. He had a ball and he was very friendly too.
Mine host at the rear
It really is worth a visit. The best beer in Weymouth, easily. I’m back there on Saturday, Guard strike or no
