Closed pubs project

[Rex_Rattus]

Good to have you aboard Glenn. RogerB pointed me at your site a year or two ago, and I did make a couple of contributions. But there are no doubt other lost pubs that I can identify in London from my extensive memory of drinking in the Capital. I'll get cracking when I get some time, but there is a mine of information already on PubsGalore that you can tap into.

Hi Glenn,

I got that far but i dont know what to put in the boxes to the right i put my email address in but it then said this was an invalid user name i also dont know what to put in the box below that.

As most users on this forum now know i am a technophobe and i it usually takes me a few attempts to get to do what i want to do.

Alan.

OK, I think we need to go back to basics.

If I assume that you know how to send emails, can you send an email to this address: submitclosedpubs@googlemail.com

Just type anything in the header box and put the details of your corrections in the main detail of the email. I'll do the rest.

(Tell me if I'm being too patronising here).

Hi everyone

Just a quick post to thank those people who pointed me at this forum.

As regards the comments re. site errors - guilty as charged I'm afraid. The main issue is with keeping entries up to date. I'm particularly conscious of the fact that I'm quite often not aware that a pub has reopened. As such when I am informed of pub re-openings I try to update that entry ASAP; a new publican doing a Google search on his pub name doesn't want to see it flagged as closed.

Thanks for all the Q.A. comments though - it's not just notification of pub closures, past or present, that I like to receive.

Hi lostpubsproject,

I find closed pub history very interesting and I will add anything I can when I get the chance - I still have 50 odd reviews to add here, but it is nice to mix things up a little.
