A month spent dodging in and out of dubious places in East Berks has put me on 87 (part of my 2015 challenge to get 100% Berks pub coverage). With York and Harrogate to come in the next few days I might well make a ton by April...

My aim is to break the 3k barrier by the end of the year, I think I need another 139.
I have some spare time after a course in Croydon tomorrow and then York on Friday and Saturday so hoping to bag 40 over the three days which will leave me with less than 100 to do in 9 months.
WE ARE THE BREADMEN - UP THE BEES
Picked up a few during the week and another 15 in York Friday puts me on 48.

A new one in Leeds and 11 in York, on Friday, brings me up to 23. 2014's total is going to beaten very easily, this year.

Not being satisfied with doing 15(all new) pubs in York Friday I managed another 15 today in London (7 new) so now on 55, happy with that.

Still on 3.Planned on to do one last Tuesday,but "dark" by 9.30 The Hawkenbury. Not strictly new, as I used to go in during the seventies, but renamed and a turbulent intervening period in between.

Helped by joining Al10000 for part of his crawl around Walthamstow,March proved a good month for new pub visits and the running total for the first quarter of 2015 stands at 53.
Doubt I will keep that rate up but it will be fun trying.

Almost forgot that 4 pubs "off piste" in York bring me up to 52.
A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Another 11 in and around Hollinwood last night puts me on 63.
I'm pretty sure I will never visit ANY of those 11 pubs ever again.
That's how good they were.
