We entered the pub, which seemed extremely dilapidated and ancient, the chairs were placed upside down on the tables with cobwebs formed on them. It seemed as though people hadn't visited it in about a century. A Fat and plump man stood at the counter, intensely cleaning few mugs. He sported an unusually long and thick grey beard that nearly touched his waist and wore half-moon glasses. “Judy,” I murmured, agitatedly. “The last thing I want to hear from you today is that we have come here to enjoy some beer, coz you feel I am hallucinating or going crazy,”

The familiar streets of their shared history became a canvas for celebration. One afternoon, they found themselves standing beneath the sprawling branches of the ancient oak tree at Berkeley University.

The fresh morning air and the scent of the trees greeted me asI came out of the hall of the main building.

This place looked like it’s main customer base were the local students. Everyone looked very young. Most people were in jeans, jumpers and trainers. She looked down at her own corporate-like get up and suddenly felt over-dressed.She looked around the pub. She couldn’t spot Chris anywhere, so she went straight to the bar.

Made of solid wild Hawthorn blessed with salted holy water complete with a mixed silver and iron handle made in the shape of a pentagram. Monsters would have a better time breaking into Fort Knox. Another howl sounded, the scraping of claws on brick as they ran along the tops of the building.
