A Return to the Oaksmere, Brome, Suffolk - 8th December 2020

As Lockdown 2: The Sequel ends, but the pubs remain pointlessly closed unless eating Scotch eggs or massive grab-bags of crisps, we're only too happy to get over to the Oaksmere for some pub beer, along with burgers and fish'n'chips. Book-ending that are a couple of days of slightly-more-interesting-than-usual weather, including a foggy day and a spot of frost.
