    None for me yet, and none in the foreseeable.There should be some updates and even some new ones in the Autumn, providing Lockdown 4 isn't an issue.

    Oh all of the above. 'Specialist' including such esoterica as the British Legion, Ogri MCC and some places the general public aren't allowed to visit.

    Really enjoyed Scarborough and found another 2 pubs before leaving bringing total to 42.

    Worcester have a great pub fest with a lot of their pubs taking part, and we had a good day there finding another 3 new ones,

    Off to York for 4 nights where we found 5 we hadn't tried before. While there, we caught the coastliner to Leeds armed with a list of pubs we had enjoyed in the past, many with Pubs Galore, but found another 3 . Couldn't get into 2 other new ones we wanted to try due to late opening hours now, but will have another go next time in York September. It was great to see Mr & Mrs Realaleray at York Tap as we were getting ready to get the train home.

    A pub beer fest in Alvechurch near Redditch today has brought our total to 54.

    2019 saw 204 new pubs, 2020 saw 52, so pleased to find the current year getting a chance to hit treble figures.

    Great to see Gill and Ray at the York Tap. We also had an excellent day out, we ended our day's crawl out in Holgate. Also managed to have a quick beer in the Tap before the train.

    Now into double figures at last with 12.

    August saw some churning around previously unvisited London pubs with mixed results on the real ale front,but pushing to year to date total to 49.

    Yikes! I need to pull my finger out. Visited 12 new pubs in August, but that only got me to 27 for the year - the 27th was a cup of coffee at The Shrub Club in New Mills, which is a drink so I'm counting it.

    I've got a holiday coming up next week and should get a few done in hitherto unexplored parts of Scotland (including Langholm's four pubs, and maybe some in Peebles and/or Innerleithen), but Moby is coming up to Sheffield and if he doesn't get at least 20 new pubs I'll eat my hat.

    Luckily I have plans to visit a few new pubs in London towards the end of the month, plus some ideas for trips to Sandal, Darton and possibly Featherstone here in Yorkshire's West Riding, and an even crazier plan to visit as many as 13 Bass pubs in Stoke on Trent, which fell victim to the first lockdown. If all else fails, there must be some low-hanging fruit here in Sheffield...
