McLean NSW is a Tidy Town
…. and it also features a tidy main street pub, the McLean, a handsome establishment with an established clientele of the ancient and grizzled – men not quite in their prime who like to show up early everyday, grab their customary seat in the beer garden and drink a lot of beer.
They may be married, they may be not, in any case it’s rare to see any of them in the company of a woman unless it’s the lovely behind the bar, Monique, she too is a local but unlike the men she serves, Monique has a rampant sense of humour, she also is in charge of the beer garden whiteboard, the one that’s supposed to show tourists (us) what the specials are on the day’s menu.

Monique’s whiteboard in its virgin state at 10:30 am.
But Mons likes to put her own specials up before writing up the pub’s menu of the day.
This was her list of specials yesterday.
