    I've not done a bulk hot food on the basis of it as places can be rated even if they don't actually prepare any food (no I don't understand that either!)
    Wouldn't it be more useful to keep the new pubs added and other amendments up to date?

    Yeah I appreciate things are getting behind again and it is frustrating, I did notice your other post the other day.

    As you suggested it would be good if other admins were able to approve the new pubs - that is coming, hopefully in the next month.

    Thanks for that and I would like to point out that I didn't actually write the headline for this post, although it does reflect my opinion.
    It's nice to see an increasing number of reviews from new people appearing, some from the dark side.
    Self promotion posts should be celebrated as it means the site has credibility and few people would not be able to recognise them for what they are.
    The What Pub links are a real plus for the site mainly for the opening hours.
    I get the impression there is a certain amount of co-operation between the two sites and that can only be a good thing as long as the two sites remain independent as they have a significantly different function.
    Maybe there is a case to be made for a link between here and the Lost Pubs Project for closed pubs.

    They aren't always correct but offer a good basis for planning visits and pursuing further research/confirmation phone call to confirm times.

    Agree with this.

    I originally posted in the name and shame topic about pubs with zero hygiene ratings and it has been given a new thread. I think that the upkeep of new outlets is a lot more important than this as long as they are not off licences, residential hotel bars or night clubs.

    All my 'Pending Approval' items (with the solitary exception of one now-closed pub) now cleared - many thanks Dave!

    Good call, I am indeed 3 weeks behind on new pubs. It has been a busy month, doesn't seem like that long ago. Will sort them now.
