With a tight window between meetings, I had to choose between lunch or a run. Oh, sweet sloth and gluttony.
I wandered over to the Mermaid, a small bar in the student centre next to Joe’s, and got some crappy chips and chicken portions. They had craft beer on, but I opted for Foster’s since I only had that much cash on me.
The music was pleasant enough despite the so-so food.
Mermaids feature all over the campus including the fountain just outside the bar (here’s a link for an explanation of the mermaid obsession).
Oh, right, the motto on the shield is something like, “by struggle, to the heights!” Looking around the bar, I find the theme to Warner Brother’s cartoons more appropriate…Overture! Curtain! Lights! This is it, we’ll hit the heights!
