Didn't get quite as many pubs ticked in Norwich as I originally planned as the pubs in general were just too good for a quick half and go, but I managed 18 plus a couple elsewhere before my trip, so now on 30.

As mentioned in post # 29 here, yes.
A pub for every day of the year apparently, or so I was told on my one visit to the place in the Autumn of 1991. I recall this was in fact mentioned as a potential crawl destination but I think there may have been some objections due to it being inconvenient for those who don't live in the South-East (or Norwich).
Norwich (aka 'the City of Ale') offers a potential multi-day pub crawl if you are so minded, and must be in the top five UK cities for such purposes.
If you got the patience, it is connected to many northern and central cities (such as Liverpool, Widnes, Warrington, Manchester, Stockport, Sheffield, Chesterfield, Nottingham, Grantham and Peterborough) by direct East Midlands Trains.
The council should be informed.
We have been in Scarborough with a day trip to Whitby, and are now on 40 for this year. Had a few in Bristol earlier this month, and some local ones too. Worcester, Darlington and Coventry visits after lockdown helped too.
Finally made it into double figures (11) but off to Northumberland for a fortnight shortly so hopefully will treble that or more.
Now on 3 after a brief visit to the pretty awful The 13ar in Rochdale.
47, plus more private clubs than i care to think about.
None for me yet, and none in the foreseeable.There should be some updates and even some new ones in the Autumn, providing Lockdown 4 isn't an issue.
Really enjoyed Scarborough and found another 2 pubs before leaving bringing total to 42.
Worcester have a great pub fest with a lot of their pubs taking part, and we had a good day there finding another 3 new ones,
Off to York for 4 nights where we found 5 we hadn't tried before. While there, we caught the coastliner to Leeds armed with a list of pubs we had enjoyed in the past, many with Pubs Galore, but found another 3 . Couldn't get into 2 other new ones we wanted to try due to late opening hours now, but will have another go next time in York September. It was great to see Mr & Mrs Realaleray at York Tap as we were getting ready to get the train home.
A pub beer fest in Alvechurch near Redditch today has brought our total to 54.
2019 saw 204 new pubs, 2020 saw 52, so pleased to find the current year getting a chance to hit treble figures.

Managed 10 in August so now up to 43.
Yikes! I need to pull my finger out. Visited 12 new pubs in August, but that only got me to 27 for the year - the 27th was a cup of coffee at The Shrub Club in New Mills, which is a drink so I'm counting it.
I've got a holiday coming up next week and should get a few done in hitherto unexplored parts of Scotland (including Langholm's four pubs, and maybe some in Peebles and/or Innerleithen), but Moby is coming up to Sheffield and if he doesn't get at least 20 new pubs I'll eat my hat.
Luckily I have plans to visit a few new pubs in London towards the end of the month, plus some ideas for trips to Sandal, Darton and possibly Featherstone here in Yorkshire's West Riding, and an even crazier plan to visit as many as 13 Bass pubs in Stoke on Trent, which fell victim to the first lockdown. If all else fails, there must be some low-hanging fruit here in Sheffield...
31 for the year with 14 last month, eight in Hackney which mostly turned out to be better than expected with one in new in Oxford which was a decent surprise and another there which I hadn't visited in 25 years and turned out to be a bit of a disappointment.

It's great to able to crawl freely round pubs again, without worrying about masks, one-way systems and the like. A successful couple of days take me up to 75.
Now if we can just get the beer supply sorted out...
It seems there is some trepidation amongst the brewers about this, one of my regular pubs that has two or three beer festivals a year in normal times had one penciled in for next month but has now postponed until next easter, due to lack of varied product available, citing worries about more restrictions possibly due as we head into winter, so restricting the amount and variety of products brewed.
Finally made my first new visit since 25th. October last year. Might be a few more this Autumn, but they'll be few and far between.
I think this is the first time I've managed this but there is a new place in Stockton, called Sticky Fingers Rock Bar. Not even on Google yet.
Visited Friday, walked in to The Smiths followed by Weezer. Beer passable ..Attachment 2666
