Staying here by any chance? Then cocktails with Wills and Kate at Kensington Palace?

The Guardian seems to provide a very loose interpretation of what constitutes a 'pub'. I don't think that converting any old place for the consumption of alcohol constitutes saving or creating a...

Just the Churchill. A virtual local, yet I've only been in it once in the last eight-and-a-half years; I can't for the life of me think why I was so generous with the marking?:confused:

The Chichester Arms

Renamed Green Man.

Ebberley Arms

The Royal Exchange

A shame - I gave him quite a few photos over the years.



Ha! When I started reading the article, I thought that the beers were named after current local prostitutes and that the women on the...

I actually know Matt Brown, 'The Londonist'. He's from Grimsby, though has lived here for 20 years which as he told me "...explains my hybrid accent."



...but I doubt he'll break sweat....

'There's also a handpump toilet flush in the ladies, according to Mrs Ale.' - I can't remember where I saw it/read it, but I've heard of a pub where the toilet flush is a Doom Bar pump clip!

Having just read your review of the place, all I can say is hats off to the place for trying!:)

The Bell at Yarpole was bought as a community pub, reopened, but seems to have closed again.

The best 'worst'...

Katzenjammers

Steve's comparison between British and German barmaids made me smile! :)

A tin opener, eh? In the early '70s I remember my dad attacking his Party Sevens with a screwdriver, beer spraying everywhere. I do recall some sort of tap device...

Yeah, but he'd lost all his lolly in Layer Cake. :ninja:

Went to a couple of fantastic places near the Royal Mile in 1993, but there's no chance of recalling their names.:(

Cheating a bit as I wasn't in a pub, rather standing next to me at the check-out queue at the Oxford Street branch of M & S: Kenneth Cranham (likes his cardies does our Ken).

Off topic I'm afraid - I don't know if you really are interested in The Clash, but there's an exhibition on at the Museum of London:...
