    Default Fame At Last?

    After Bury Beer Festival on Saturday Ms CAMRA and I went to Trackside for a pint. We got talking to a couple at the bar (as you do).

    They were checking out pubs with a map from BITE. I suggested that they try PuG in future and explained why. The girl said "What name do you post reviews under?". I told her and she said "Ohmigod, you're ROBcamra, we always look out for your reviews when we're travelling around Greater Manchester".

    Fame at last, I think I'll start a fan club.

    Shame I didn't get to pick up my PuG business cards until Monday.

    ...."then go somewhere else". Seriously though, must be a nice feeling whren someone you haven't met before likes your reviews.

    Yes they actually said "we always look out for your reviews, they're crap" but I missed that bit off.

    I am just happy that some of the reflected fame falls onto PuG

    As of last night The Baum now has a PuG card on each table in the menu/beermat holders. I hope that they all get nicked.
