as we drove back from the village shop we passed some of the other places that supplied accommodation at alton towers.the first one was called the green man inn ,and had some tents and caravans outside.ithought it might be nice to go in to check the place out for dining the next night,and maybe a pint of the local brew while i was there.just as well my wife had taken over the driving.and not before time as we had left for alton towers theme park at six in the morning,and it had been a long drive to our acommodation then alton towers then dinner.
