A piece of the bar

I went to the pub this evening and walked away with a piece of wood from the bar.

I should explain.

Recall that I am Queen of Puddings at the Haymakers after I won the inaugural monthly Pudding Club competition with my strawberoni pizza on 26th May.

One of the managers today said, when I popped in for a swift 'alf after work, that he was giving me, as a prize, a spare piece of wood from the bar to use as a chopping board. I'm to give it a good scrub, and oil it with olive oil and hemp oil, and it'll be brilliant for making bread on.

I am surprised, delighted and pleased.
