LOL ChasCreek funny you mention the Badger Bar we had a meal there while we were on holiday. Lovely atmosphere and I was sitting right beside the stuffed badger. The meal was lovely too and just to remind us we were in the country on the way out we saw 2 ladies having a pint with their horses outside near the car park. Only in the Lake District! P.S. I must add that the horses weren't drinking just the owners!!!
