    I've spent all day wondering where I might spend tonight's beer budget. The Morpeth is tempting, but it's such a long way away.

    Cheap rounds this week by the looks of it tho'.

    Not flat ones. Although maybe 100+ gear inches would simulate a constant 10% incline.

    You can't say things like that and then not provide details or is it a case of what goes on at the Morpeth stays at the Morpeth ;-)

    it's fu<king great, best 'gastro' pub around... no reservations though name on a list when you turn up... so you have to turn up early or be prepared to be freaking starving when you get to the table
