The Best Things in Walsall, West Midlands*

If you're around, be sure to check these things out

You can tell us more about Walsall.

• The Stein as its not full of twats on a saturday night and they make an effort to put quality events / parties on there. The Walsall Beer festival at the New college is also pretty cool. The highgate area and Park Hall area (even if they do say they have B'ham postcode) are nice areas of walsall with highgate being the home of the towns brewery used in a few TV costume dramas. The Walsall New Art Gallery Garmen Ryan collection is pretty cool if you like Art- includes a pencil sketch by van Gogh called 'sorrow' which has a nice story behind it which im sure the curator will tell you about as you stand there pondering on how you could sneak it out without being seen just before closing time. The Garmen Ryan story itself is quite interesting as well. The grange theatre ive heard do lots of plays however they sell out on their mailing list pretty quick.
