No Rutland Walk; drink at the Woolpack, Banstead 


On Saturday evening we went to the Rutland Walk Sports and Social Club to see the Frog Island Jazz Band. We found the site deserted and the gate padlocked and have since learnt of a dispute between manager and owner. Regardless of the legal position the action shows total disregard for others, both the band and the punters who travelled long distances. This would seem to be the end of this particular venue as all trust has been lost. On the journey back we stopped at The Woolpack in Banstead for a drink. From the outside this looks like a typical country pub (see picture). Inside it is an old-fashioned pub as seen in London many years ago. I had my favourite Young's Bitter, Selina enjoyed her dry white wine and Derek seemd to like his drink. This is the fourth time we have used this pub, the last three visits to Banstead being solely for that purpose. We must like this pub !
