    Impressive, so is it Isleworth, Richmond, Kingston?
    Admirable to do London... plus environs, or outliers as you say, good luck!

    Yep, those three. Turns out the closed one in Deptford has also re-opened - a pub too far for tomorrow. So still one on the list but the rest will be done, pretty simple from Reading and there'll be a few extra GBG ones thrown into the mix which are nearby.

    So it turns out that only one was conquered yesterday. Deptford was binned-off as being too far a schlep, whilst the Sams in Isleworth and Kingston are both shut. Humph strikes again.

    Finally, yesterday, five years on, I finally completed the challenge! Finishing at Isleworth. Waiting for both that and the one in Kingston to both be open at the same time has taken an age.

    All the London Spoons next!

    Congratulations!

    PS - What's the best source of a definite list?

    I can't recall exactly where I started the list, think there was a website somewhere that listed them and then it was x-ref through Google.

    I can say 'bugger' once a month in any of his London pubs.
