Ye Olde Taverne

A small beer and large meal with flatmate Neil in preparation for The Hobbit. First time in the Fountain which has scrubbed up considerably since the last time I considered going there 5 or 6 years ago. Good food portions, but it probably needs to work on it a bit to beat nearby gastropubs like the Caley Sample Rooms.

As for the film? Well, let's just say I'd have liked to have seen what Guillermo Del Toro would have done rather than just get a prequel to Lord of the Rings.
