00:28 We're just out here today asking people what their favourite beer garden is basically,

00:31 have you got any ideas on that?

00:33 Erm, I think Triple Point, I don't know what the street's called.

00:37 Yeah, near Sindhurstwood.

00:39 Yeah, down near St Mary's Gate by the Netherland, yeah, so what do you like about it?

00:43 Erm, I think I have memories of it around pandemic times, when it was the first time

00:48 we could sit outside again and have a drink.

00:51 That's gorgeous.

00:52 Yeah, good beer as well.

00:53 Is there a favourite drink of yours?

00:55 Yeah, the alcohol free Urging Ale.

00:58 Yes, that's what I was going to say.

01:01 Yeah, actually genuinely nice alcohol free beer.

01:04 Good job for that.

01:06 Yeah, I mean I'd probably say the Washington, down by Devonshire Green.

01:09 Yeah, Washington, yeah, got the I logo on it.

01:12 Yeah, yeah.

01:13 Yeah, I like that one. So what do you like about it?

01:16 I suppose it's got good people I guess, it's got good vibes, it's sort of slightly more

01:22 alternative than sort of like the ones if you go to like Spoons or something like that.

01:26 Yeah.

01:27 It's I guess just slightly more alternative.

01:29 I like how they put on different concerts, they put on music that's a bit different

01:32 to most of the places.

01:33 Yeah, yeah, yeah, like the bands and stuff, yeah.

01:35 I agree, I think.
