Your plans in upcoming weeks

My recent, and by that I mean recent years(!), pub count, never mind new pub count, has mostly been nothing short of pathetic! I need to start correcting this and breaking out of this hermit-like existence.
Does anyone know where I might find a listing of the camra regional finalists for, say, the last five years? That may give me some inspiration, as well as our own potm and comments in general, of course.
Or if anyone fancies offering their top-3 this year (or last year), for instance, that sort of list could prove catalytic.
Cheers, jb

Will sort a list tonight Jim.

Thanks Mick, a lot of quality in West Yerks., a couple of days there is a good idea.
I missed so many when whizzing thru on a friend's 5-town tour (in a day!), a more leisurely return is needed.

My records (and memory) are extremely sketchy, with crawl recollection fading fast and it wasn't at its sharpest towards the end.

My three best recollections to date for the year:

Big 6 (got the T-shit)
The Sussex Arms
The Three Pigeons

Here's last year: https://camra.org.uk/press_release/c...s-in-the-uk-2/

I think this year's are in the process of being finalised/announced. There's a thread on Discourse that has named most of them.

Here's a little list of six pubs that I've rated 9 or 10 in the last two years:

The Wild Boar, Warwick
The Cardinals Hat, Lincoln
Talbot Arms, Settle
Chesterfield Arms, Chesterfield
Manor Arms, Broughton in Furness
The Black Rock, Wakefield (change of licensee this year, but beer was still good last time I was there)

Thanks Will, surprised the Black Rock has changed hands - the guvnor seemed like someone who might be there for life, proper old school.
