I got the last two wrong, the only one I've been to is the former Boddington's pub under the railway viaduct at Stockport. It was the first pub we visited prior to a trip round Robinson's Brewery in the late 1970s.

9/10, got The Stag's Head (Q8) wrong.

Don't read on if you haven't done it yet.....


The Rose & Crown (Q10) I think looks like the one at Epcot.

Had another look at the one I got wrong.The Americans rarely let you drink outside a pub.The people look chavily dressed.But the big giveaway that I didn't notice was above the door it says PUB.Would we need to be told what it is.

It was the PUB notice that convinced me it was US on that one as the clientele looked English to me, Just surprised the PUB sign didn't have any exclamation marks following it.

9/10, second guessed myself on Churchills – No. 5 I think.

Lord Nelson (No. 9) is in Poole.

I went in the Rose and Crown in 1989. I can remember sitting outside facing a big lake with my cousin’s uncle whilst he supped on a Guinness and I had a coke as I was 13.

So it is - I must've walked past that pub hundreds of times over the years, but only recognise it now you've pointed it out.

Remarkably, I did recognise the Stockport pub which I've never been to and I think No 6 is the Two Brewers in Windsor.

Somehow managed to score 10/10. The Churchill's one was fairly easy, as there was a stars and stripes hung outside.

I thought that was too obvious and therefore intended to be misleading, so put it down as a UK pub. :o

[Note to self: stop over-thinking simple quiz questions.]

Stout was easy as all the reflections of cars and van in Windows are American.

Also 8/10 but I wouldn't have got Q1 wrong if I had read things properly.
I hadn't realised the quiz had started and thought I was being asked MY location! Idiot.

Full marks for originality, though. :)
