Who for? :eek:

Like all the venues, but can't do 1 or 8 Nov. 15 or 22 better for us.

With my in-laws living in Worcester I've had some good sessions in the city down the years. The local scene seems to be thriving, at the moment, with both the Paul Pry and Cardinal's Hat back in ale lovers' hands, after periods in the wilderness. Definitely worth a visit at some stage.

Sheffield, Leeds and Manchester all sound good to me.

Worcester interests me, I must admit. York is on my schedule once or sometimes twice a year and I've done a good crawl in Leeds recently, though I've never done more than a handful of pubs in Manchester. And as for Sheffield...

I've got a slight preference for Friday, 22nd November. It does get dark pretty early at that time of year, though. What's the street lighting like in Worcester?;)

Time for a bump,I fear my interjection above may have gummed up the works.Two of the northern brigade ,sheffield hatter and a&h ,sound positive on Worcester .As there were positive vibes from some of the Reading crawlers maybe reverse logic is required.I can certainly understand that a pub crawl around a city that you are already familiar with can be a little dull,so how about proposing Worcester and seeing if there are many objections ?

In terms of dates it seems that in November the following days are still open(I have eliminated those dates I couln't make) ;

Fridays 15th,22nd

Saturdays 2nd,16th,23rd,30th

A process of elimination may get us to a suitable date .

I've done Worcester myself and there are a few good pubs there, all a bit spread out.

As it's 126 miles south of me I certainly don't think it can be considered north.

All Saturdays are out for me.

No problem with Worcester or at the moment any dates in November ,but an advanced decision will obviously help.

Well as the Reading trip started off as Leeds....................... :p

I’ll not know when I am free until much nearer the time so I will go along with whatever is decided.
