Blane Valley

Interesting bar in the heart of the Merchant City. £3.30 a pint of Tennents, feels a bit steep for the look of the place. Doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the Merchant. It isn't modern in the slightest, yet it has a homely feel to it. On this very rainy day, it's nice and warm.
They have Budweiser on tap, which is unusual. Then the usual suspects: Guinness, Stella and John Smiths. The only cider on tap is Blackthorne. Gantry is bog standard; nothing special at all.
There are big windows, so you can see the town's comings and goings. Music is poor - not to my tastes at all.  It is mostly clubbing music, which at one in the afternoon, when you stop off for a quick jar, is quite irritating.
Anywhoo, this pint is nice - just watching the world go by.
