The State

Mike normally meets me on my walk home from work. He likes to get out after a long days reading through books and writing papers, but mainly I think he likes it because of all the pubs between the M8 and our apartment. The pub we normally stop at was closed for the week so that they can install their super-chilled system. SO, we looked around the corner and spotted 'The State.'
The inside of the pub was amazing. Lots of stuff to look at and the seats even looked like they were the originals. The bar maid was incredibly nice and took the time to recommend different ales to us as well. Not something you usually get in a pub, which was a pleasant surprise. AND it looks like they have quite a bit of live music as well in the evenings. Needless to say, we will be heading back to this pub in the future! 5 February 2007
