There's more than one..?!!

Glad you all had a good day, looks like the lower number of attendees was balanced by a greater number of pubs. That's a dangerous tally!
Never been to Worcester (lack of hols after Barca trip prevented my attendance), so will look at reviews with interest to whittle down the additions to the Big Two.

I'm probably looking forward to a beer today rather more than some hardy souls above..

Hope all those who've been struggling with t'lurgy are back on form at the bar soon.

Thank you SH for the great round up of our day out. It was fantastic, and great company as usual. I seem to have all my notes intact and readable, wonders will never cease.

Glad you all had a good time.

Were there any thoughts about the location for the next one?

It's all a bit slow today at Fastard Towers, however it was a very enjoyable crawl around historic Worcester in great company as always.


There were some discussions about a crawl in July before the school holidays begin (Often a time when rail deals may start to evaporate.)Specific dates and venue were not touched upon,and should start a lively debate,if anyone is feeling fit to get the ball rolling.

We thoroughly enjoyed the day, good to see everyone and also, great to see 2 new faces aka. Beatles38 (Gerry) and Downender (Gavin - AEM's twin!!).
Managed to get 7 new pubs on the day, which included the Hand in Glove, which Quinno took us to at the end of the night, along with Dave and Tammy. The 'hailstone walk' over the river was worth it, as I really liked the Wheatsheaf and the Bell, cracking pubs.

We also managed Hereford and Ledbury yesterday. We had to go back into Worcester yesterday evening to collect our bags, missed the train by a few mins back to Brum, so ended up back in the Dragon for more Little Ale Cart. We then got the 19.53 back to Brum, went to the Craven Arms where I tried a chilli flavoured stout. This unfortunately guided my taste buds to the Barajee curry house along Broad Street for a balti accompanied by a couple of pints of Kingfisher lager - only to notice today that we paid the bill at 1.10am

Popped into the Welly today for a lunchtime tipple before the train back to Liverpool and bumped into Delboy, before he headed off to the footy, was great to see him.

I think their sprinklers were working on full power. Have to say, some of the ales were a bit lively. A bit like most of us, by this stage of the crawl.
