I am looking forward to doing the Grapes as this is one of only a few London pubs that i have not visited that is in a nice book i have about London Pubs by Peter haydon & Chris Coe.
I am also looking forward to going in the Eleanor Arms because it is a Shepherd Neame house,i love Shepherd Neames beers,and lastly i will enjoy going in hopefully 12 unreviewed London pubs which is quite hard to do with so many reviewers being down south.
PS also forgot to say looking forward to seeing the boats on the canal
Good to meet up with you yesterday Alan, even if it was only for the last couple of pubs on your long list. After you pushed off to get your coach, I did walk down the road to visit the New Globe and The Victoria, as the latter had opened by the time I got there. Maybe meet up again sometime.
Al,glad that you got into The Palm Tree,sounds like you enjoyed the visit.

Yes i did BF,
The landlord was a really nice bloke,i talked to him throughout my time in the pub,have a look at the photo i took of him posing outside the pub,i may send him a photo when i get round to getting my pictures printed out,it was also nice to finally meet meet a regular from the Pubs Galore forum,Rex travelled halfway across London to end up having two quick halfs with me,but it was still nice to put a face to a name.
My only dissapointment was the amount of pubs that did not open in time for me to do them,only 18 new pubs done,just not good enough.
