    I read about them last year http://forums.pubsgalore.co.uk/showt...ight=tairsters

    Since they said that one of their favourite pubs was the Highwayman in Sourton, Devon I paid it a visit. A quirky place it is too. Strongers - you could take Mrs Strongers and she would like it there, I'm sure
    Waes hael!

    Blimey - that's nearly one third of all the pubs/bars in Britain!

    I am trying my hardest Maldenman but being made redundent in 2009 and a recent health scare have slowed me down considerably.

    I have now had a drink in 10,425 pubs, i will hopefully get 1 more new one done this week because a new pub opened today in my home town.
