PuG Reviews - Appreciation Thread

[Strongers]

Yeah, I have 250-odd old pubs on the 'to-do' list, many of which date from my hiatus period between sites. I still took notes though and I am now using my spares on the mass migrate tool (200-odd from Reading!) to get these done. Deciphering three-year old notes on scraps of paper, often written when tipsy, is proving to be a bit of a challenge so some of them will be a little more short and terse than usual.

So you had a year off but didn't?

So you had a year off but didn't?

Yep - I suspected that I would end up here but wanted to see how things panned out as I didn't want a BITE Mk#2 scenario. I felt like I'd wasted a lot of time over the other side and my morale was quite low. I thought a year or so would be enough to see if the good things I'd heard about PuG were a long-term reality rather than a flash in the pan so I kept taking notes and thought that, if PuG didn't work out I'd simply write a blog for my reviews and pix instead. Happily, it's the former. This site has made big strides over the last couple of years and I think we're on the cusp of the tipping point where we start to get traffic generated by word of mouth, the fact that the quality of reviews are better and that, most importantly, the database accuracy is streets ahead. Fingers crossed....
