Pub crawl suggestion...as tried and tested this evening with a couple of friends.


Started at The Vale - pleasantly surprised. I asked a man (who said he was the owner) about this Whetherspoon thing and he said it was "all a load of crap". Make of that what you will. But nice and cosy sitting next to the real fire.


Then we moved on to...oh gawd...where was it? Was it Hoopers? Yes, I think it was Hoopers. Not my favourite - a bit too quiet...and decor a bit old fashioned for me...a nice old man's pub...lots of old men reading their papers in silence. But I was sold by the TV showing Man. U playing Wolverhampton. One of my friends said it was her favourite of the evening...so it's all very subjective.


Then the Victoria Inn. One of Scott's bars. Prefer it to the Actress...less noisy and a bit more comfortable. Certainly not as crowded.


Finally the Montpelier...I can't remember anything about that one. Oh yes...a kind of cross between the Actress and another pub but I can't remember which right at the minute. My tongue is numb - that last Sambuca was over the top.

You are right! I am off cider at the moment. Started off tonight's pub crawl with Cahlua - lovely sweet toffee like coffee flavour. The final pub (Montepelier) didn't stock it and I fancied something sweet, so ordered Sambuca because it tastes of aniseed balls. Nearly blew my head off - but delicious. Drank it slowly by dipping my tongue into glass for a few seconds at regular intervals. Result = numb tongue LOL!


See you soon for a Sambuca (or two)! x

DJKQ, go have some Sambuca, it will help with your footie injury.


It was a great pub crawl for a Tuesday night, i liked all of the bars, we didn't need to drive either :), it was a good walk and a fair amount of booze involved. The Vale is a very nice bar and very cosy and the food on the menu looks great. The chef was friendly when he came out to put the menus out. Hoopers bar is quite traditional and local footie players were having a drink in there. The Victoria nice as ever and the burger with onions was fab IMO. Two of my p!ss-artist buddies did not rate the chips though, didn't stop them from woofing them all down though. The Mont- great last stop, friendly and cosy too then it was the walk back to ED.

Knowing me, it'll only encourage me to pole dance on my crutch........nooooooooooooo - don't even picture that......


And Dita - you may not have drunk any Sambucca but at least I wasn't acting out my bedroom seduction techniques in the middle of The Actress on a Friday Night! Killer wine that was eh ;-)

Hear that karter? Respect for...erm...Laddy:-S Muck!!!!


Tongue fully recovered today.


Oh and as for Dita's...ahem...(*coughs*)...dance...well, that was an artistic feat the like of which my eyes had never seen before...I feel quite, quite privileged. Nearly coughed my own lungs up with laughter! The lady is blessed with enormous talent - of that there can be no doubt.


As for you pole-dancing on your crutch, Queenie - that I've got to see LOL!

    • Our camera caught two folks doing this. One of them led me to believe the delivery driver was in on it as he left the package in a very odd place that the thief (who arrived about 10 minutes after from a direction where he could not have seen where the driver left it) went straight to it and took it - but he then dumped it halfway down the next road as clearly packets of freeze-dried food for a DofE award wasn't to his liking (karma sucks!). The second time a guy pulled his bike up in broad daylight, walked down to our door, opened the box, threw the empty box down and stuffed what he had found in his backpack and brazenly waved at the camera and then cycled off. Police asked us to upload his picture but we never heard anything back.
    • I hear that Landells Road has had a spate of parcels being taken,
    • In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him
