    Boy you are correct.. i hasn't realised it was from 1999! I thought it looked bit tacky and now I know why!

    Oh I will see you at last Tuesday meeting...

    Something that's puzzled me for ages, well, at least since the ban. Most like it's down to the Daily Mail and the like.........

    891 to Telford Bus Station then 481 to Newport http://www.cartoplus.co.uk/telford_wrekin_2/town.htm

    The 891 stops in Shifnal 8-9 pubs some pretty good , then you could do the short hop to Telford Town Centre and the Thomas Bottfield another JDW to tick off

    Brilliant! Shame there is only7 JDWs in Shropshire, 3 of those is in Shrewsbury so it is pretty sparse in Shropshire.

    If you fancy an adventure you could try Market Drayton , the JDW is the Hippodrome (its an old cinema) and there are about 14 pubs in a 2/3 min walk in fact theres about 9 in a 100 yard radius

    I dont believe it.. I was looking in JDW's website for Shropshire JDWs and I realised I actually visited The Shrewsbury Hotel in Shrewsbury! That takes me up to 97 JDWS I have visited..

    The one end of town has the Red Lion and Stags Head next door toeach other , a few doors up theres the sadly closed Corbet Arms across the road from Jeffros , if you go across the square theres the Crown next door to the Star and across the road the Stafford Court , back across the square theres three pubs in a row , Tudor House , Clive and Coffyne and Sambrook Vaults then about 50 yds up the road is the Kings Arms next door to Oscars and not far from the Coach and Horses and Joiners , the JDW is the other end of the main street about a 3 min walk from the square , there is a pub across the road from it that has changed its name recently and i cant remember its new name
