Grace was welcomed by a bar crowd that seemed to have more patrons with canine chow-time companions than without. Being a Sunday, a roast was the special of the day and Grace particular appreciated the gravy-laden meat trimmings (it was one of the finer roasts we have eat with a some particularly interesting and tasty veg accompaniment instead of the usual, steamed-to-death soggy broccoli, peas and cauliflower).<\/font><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/doggolf.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Lavender-Park-dog-golf-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"432\" height=\"346\" title=\"Lavender Park dog golf 2\" style=\"display: inline; background-image: none;\" alt=\"Lavender Park dog golf 2\" src=\"http:\/\/doggolf.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Lavender-Park-dog-golf-2_thumb.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome \u2013 Lavender Park doesn\u2019t just welcome dogs\u2026it welcomes everybody.
