From what I've been reading they have plenty other assets which could theoretically be seized to foot the bill.
I won't hold my breath though as they will surely appeal the ruling.
If it does get...
Cheers. The Dukes head and the Half Moon are on my list along with the Coat & Badge and the Gardeners. I'll do the Spoons first as I'm there before 10 and it'll be the only one open!
Off to Fulham next week and spending pre - match round Putney.
The Bricklayers looks to be the pick of the local pubs but are there any others worth it?
Cheers,
Del.
The Vine is now an O'Neill's.
Slow start due to a few things but managed 7 in Penkridge to kick things off. Off to Fulham in a couple of weeks so that should get me a few. Never drunk in Putney so all new for me there.
It's that time of year again. We go again...
The house move is definitely on in the next few months so could affect my visits positively or negatively!
I'll up my target to 150 this year but...
Managed 13 around Bournemouth so up to 106.
Happy with that!
On to 93 now. With a trip to Bournemouth coming up my 104 target is well within reach!
I know the old Acorn isn't a very good pub but this is a full on rant - Church Tavern
I'll paste it here for you to enjoy after it gets removed!
Disgusting pub should be shut down, first Traci...
The oldest pub in Tewkesbury - Ye Olde Black Bear has had it's license placed under review over noise complaints. I don't know the ins and outs but I thought I'd share this petition.
I have never...
Well miracles do happen! Managed to get a ticket so I will be going. Looking forward to a few new pubs!!
That's great mate thanks.
Gives me plenty to go on. Just hope I go...
If I manage to get hold of a ticket (which will be a miracle in itself!) I am planning an overnighter in Bournemouth.
I have provisionally booked some digs so fingers crossed.
There looks to be a...
Prettiest London pubs!

I have worked on the estate over the road for the last 15 years and used to use this pub. It was a pretty good place and I was sad to see it shut. The local rumour was a supermarket but nothing has...
I've put it high on my hit list now too. Been to Sedgley loads of times but this pub is a bit isolated so I've never done it.
There are also at least 5 that are already closed and presumably under threat of conversion / demolition. Forge Tavern, The Merrivale, Red White & Blue, The Prince and Old Court House.
The...
I have had a look through the 24 and i think there are 4 I haven't been in - The Black Bear, Red White & Blue, The Cabin and Forge Tavern. This is not for want of trying though! I visited the Forge a...
I'm planning to go through it today but I can already see at least 3 that have been closed for a while.

Crept up to 85. Looking like being one of my worst years (covid aside!). Should get past the century but don't expect much more than that!
From what I've just read it has already been demolished. Now that was quick!
Not much chance of an investigation into the cause now....
This is nothing short of criminal. I know a few people that live pretty close and I am hearing that the lane was partially blocked delaying the fire engines attending.
A grade 2 listed building sold...
