Shall we go down the pub?
Nov. 15th, 2007 10:36 pmThere are some sites, you've just got to recommend:
http://www.beerintheevening.com/crawls/gen.shtml generates pub-crawls (go to the home - http://www.beerintheevening.com/ for more specific recommendations). ExMemSec says he used this to get the pubs for Norwich seminar (and we know how nice the Adam and Eve was - with the wherries sailing past and all!)
Just used it looking for pubs near the maisonette in Woking. Think I may open a pub.... there is nothing which does not come with a 'poor version of a Beefeater' or 'you will be beaten up' warning. Actually, it's a nice area. Honest. Ringed by poor pubs.
Conversely, apart from the allegedly *dire* Knavesmire, the York house is within staggering distance of a lot of good pubs. But no Nepalese restaurants.
Tonight we had a celebration (not yet a launch) for ESP: www.exploringsurreyspast.org.uk. Hurrah. Up at last. You may have heard of it 10 years ago as "Shazam!" (exclamation mark italicised, 2pt larger than text), or five years ago as "SurreyScape". Two years ago, we persuaded the utterly lovely Heritage Lottery Fund that yes, it could work.
Update: link fixed!
