    Trouble at printers apparently, no word yet on delivery dates and St Albans has server problems too

    Amazon still has a date of 13th September so if it actully was released yesterday that is really annoying as the subscriptions are supposed to be sent out prior to publication. I got that email as well but assumed I would have got the book by now.

    My GBG App was updated to 2019 yesterday so 13th September sounds like it was the release day.

    Four for me. Leek, Rochdale, Ruabon and St Helens with the Bridge End, Ruabon, being my favourite.

    Yep, it's a pain to get to unless you like walking or long bus journeys with limited time in the pub.

    Might be going to Stockton next month and I might persuade Mrs OB to drive me to Hudswell 'cos it's a pain to get to otherwise.
    I live in Stockton so if you want tips...

    Thanks for the offer, we (Camra branch) only have a short time and it looks like The Golden Smog and The Wasp's Nest will be the only ones we can fit it.

    Two for me - Cricketers in St Helens and Nag's Head, Reading, although I'll try and squeeze The Little Green Dragon, N21 into this year's visits. Interesting that The Fountain, Leek made the cut when the same town's Earl Grey Inn was recently one of the 16 Camra 2016 POTY finalists.
