Will be heading for the uncharted watering holes of Maidstone to seal the required 9. If all goes to plan will be hitting the Rifle Volunteers around 5.30/6'ish to complete the 366. Then best I do a couple more to be sure!

The Rifle Volunteers: not been there yet, but one of the two Goachers' pubs. Dunno what the pub is like-an acquired taste I think-but the beer should be prime.

Sounds like a plan!Originally Posted by RogerB

According to Roger's Facebook page he should be entering pub no:365 aboutnow.
I've just joined Alcoholics Anonymous - I still drink, just under a different name.
It's a Leap Year - you have to wait for 366 before you break out the bunting!
Come On You Hatters!
Once more unto the breach.
Don't know about everyone else but I expect you to do 2 pubs per day next year !!!
I am a salmon !!
Mission accomplished with 3 days to spare. Had a Michael Palin moment when I approached the Rifle Volunteer as pub #366 only to find it closed so the Style & Winch a few doors down ended up being the finishing tape. The Volunteer opened at 6pm and became #367!

Well done ,that was always going to be a challenge over the whole year,I bet the pint in the Style and Winch must have tasted even better.
I guess Strongers has clocked up the most,with Pubsignman not too far behind you Roger.
You all deserve a drink

I had 2 in the Style & Winch - Thwaites Good Elf & Courage Best! Not a terribly exciting finale. Should have planned to finish at the Flower Pot - easily the best pub of the day for beers!I bet the pint in the Style and Winch must have tasted even better.
Those who know me will know of my ongoing struggle with OCD, among other disorders, however going through the figures for this year found in my anorak pocket, I find a total of 164 new pubs visited.
A poor show compared with Roger and others.
On the bright side I also find I have consumed a total of 533.22 litres of alcohol (121.60 Gallons) or an average 2.66 pints per day, this comprised 2615.38 units (7.15 per day).
