    Mr CP - it was my turn to be ignored this morning :lol: . I saw you crossing the lights north side of Tower Bridge when I was sat at the lights myself to turn right. I shouted your name, to no avail.

    A "personal crisis" means that I'm moving to Bath. May be temporary or permanent, not sure. I'd rather not post the gore up here.

    At least it is a proper place with hills - enjoy it while you are there and best of luck with it and the business :)

    'Tis true, the topography is a bit more challenging than Battersea, or anywhere else in the south east bar the steepest bits of the Downs. Hope everything turns out alright.

    @ rjsterry: Certainly looking forwards to the Somerset hills

    Ok, stupidly I might not be able to make tomorrow (work). How ridiculous is that. The plant fell over last night, so repairs today and test tomorrow night. There is the possibility it won't be fixed in time. Gr.

    There are so many to choose from, but Bath to Wick via Lansdown Hill was one of my favourites from my teenage years living north of Bristol. Just don't get stuck behind one of the buses crawling up the hill.

    The Cask may have nicer beer, but it remains crowded longer and has b*gger all outside space compared to the Morpeth, and what's more, it's a hell of a lot harder to find.

    Does that mean your "tab" at the Morpeth has expired?

    One of Dark Star Brewery's finest, I tell thee.

    I haven't been to the Cask since it was the Pimlico Tram, but have heard some good things about it.

    GO! Interior etc is nothing special, but the new Landlord is ace, and the range of beer is the best I've ever found in London and changes almost daily. Most of the nicest ales I've ever drunk has been drunk in the Cask. Bloody typical that I wait 8 years for a decent boozer in Pimlico and one opens as soon as I move out of the area...

    Food's pretty good too.

    But yeah, let's stick with the 'Peth, nasty Youngs Beer and stalky bar staff. :oops:

    Not drinking until after the Marmotte, but I'll definitely be checking it out afterwards.
