Used to see him quite often at Wycombe Wanderers home matches. His 'Austria-Hungary' joke still tickles me.

Bit late on parade - catching up after a long weekend off and trying to cram five days of work into four. A bumper week, topped by meeting the PuG faithful in Winchester on the Friday:

Vocation...

Got to love a list, but a paltry 14/100 for me.

6/11 for me too (the Hants, London and Oxon ones).

Absolutely fantastic work Richard :notworthy:

The Malt Shovel's website is a goner.

Haha, well spotted. That's one of the pitfalls of writing reviews on my phone!

A lot going on behind the scenes this week, so limited imbibition, but did manage to break into a mixed 12-bottle case from Blue Monkey that had been sitting around for a month or so, plus a couple...

I'm in, but looks like the 15th July would be the best bet for me due to work cover being required on the 29th. The missus goes in for an op this Monday, so June is a write-off until she's recovered...

Agree with those that have replied so far; one of the best 'London' lists I've seen, and 19/21 for me, with only the Harwood Arms and Skehan's letting the side down.
