I remember reading about this living legend last year... Anyone read the book?

I read about them last year http://forums.pubsgalore.co.uk/showthread.php?3306-15-000-Pubs-in-26-years&highlight=tairsters

Since they said that one of their favourite pubs was the Highwayman (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/60772/) in Sourton, Devon I paid it a visit. A quirky place it is too. Strongers - you could take Mrs Strongers and she would like it there, I'm sure

I am trying my hardest Maldenman but being made redundent in 2009 and a recent health scare have slowed me down considerably.

I have now had a drink in 10,425 pubs, i will hopefully get 1 more new one done this week because a new pub opened today in my home town.

Tongue firmly in cheek Alan, best wishes mate. Hope all is well again soon.
