A Night Out in Nottingham

At the hostel we came across Eric and Jay and invited them on our pub adventure. We started at the Salutation with a pint of Aspall Cyder and game of cards. From there we went to the Trip, which was partly built into some caves. After which we shot some pool at the Major Oak Pub on Pelham Street (I personally switched between missing my shots and watching the others win).

Eric had mentioned a secret bar earlier and Tessa had been baiting him ever since, whether it really existed or not. He finally caved and took us to the mysterious Boilermaker. We went into a tiny store, could be no more than ten square feet, with boilers hanging on the walls. Quite strange for a store to be unlocked and empty at night though…Music could already be heard through the back walls. Eric pushed a small button on the counter and a few minutes later a security guard came through the left of two doors. The five of us plus the guard then squished into the room to the right, which happened to be a tiny red bathroom. Once the door closed behind us, Eric pushed the sink away and voilà! The secret entrance to the Boilermaker lounge. (It was something out of a film.)
