Ale Tales
These stories are just some of what I hope will be many more of a series of ‘Ale Tales’, a collection of short stories centred on three friends and their adventures whilst engaging on their favourite activity, visiting pubs in around the City of Leicester in the quest for the perfect pint. Join their exploits as they struggle to land a pilot-less aircraft, take a trip in a hot air balloon during a thunderstorm and find out that there are pubs with no beer.
The Main Characters
MIKE: A well loved local character, best renowned for his knowledge of fine ales and the ability to sample most new ones on a good day.
ROBERT: Retired he spends his time fiddling with computers, avoiding his talkative wife or accompanying his pals to their favourite pubs.
CUTHBERT: Or Dangler to those that know him best. He has been blind for a number of years and just able to see the outline of a pint glass for which he has been thankful. He is accompanied by his faithful dog Boozer, his eyes and some say his brains too.
