Just realised that Beaujolais Day at The Baum is Thursday 17th.
It's going to get very messy (or at least I am).

A pub is for life not just for Christmas

I would estimate the timings a bit like this;
Cherry Tree <12:00
Kings Head 12:00-13:15 (allowing Trainman to arrive and neck a pint)
Sportsman 13:20-13:45
Magic Rock 13:55-14:15
Slubbers 14:20-14:40
Wood St 14:55-15:15
Vulcan 15:18-15:35 (could miss out and go straight to Corner...)
Corner 15:40-16:10
Rat & Ratchet 16:20-17:00
(Star 17:10-17:45)
Grove 17:10-1745 or 18:00-18:30 if the Star is included
Plumbers 17:50-18:10 (18:40-19:00)
Head of Steam 18:15 - end (19:05 - end)
All VERY approximate, 20 minutes per pub at the start might easily slip to half an hour. I would still estimate 15:30 to 16:00 as arrival time at The Corner.
I think the list of hardy drinkers is
Ale & Hearty
Bucking Fastard
Gann
Old Boots
Real Ale Ray + Fiona
ROBcamra
RP Adam
Sheffield Hatter
Trainman
apologies if anyone is missing.
I don't know either Elaine or Tara, so I can't estimate how pleased they will be to have a chat with us after we've visited seven other pubs. Should we perhaps bump the Corner up the list? It's only five minutes or so from the station, and we could then move on to the Sportsman, etc. Just a thought.
Come On You Hatters!
Jolly decent ob, but don't worry about me if y'all are ready to move forward.
If so, I would probably swerve subsequent Wood St and Vulcan in favour of a joker (or 2) at R&R, where Jonesey will probably suggest some comedy darts...
I woke up yesterday thinking, fearfully, about how much worse I'd be feeling next Sat and, after a Sheffield debrief, next Sunday.
I am terribly offended !!!! I shall attend with Tony who you may remember from Bristol and somewhere else (which I can't remember !!!). Arrival will be 1245.
Good seeing Ian at Rochdale on Thursday, beer in the Baum was good too although I was a bit gassed by the time I got there !!!
Me and Tammy will also be there. See you all tomorrow.
