I decided (in a moment of madness) to go through every posting in this thread and see how many Pubs listed I had actually taken a drink in. I gave up the ghost when I got to 14 and I had not gone more than a third of the way through all the postings. An exercise I have to say not for the faint hearted or the very intelligent!

I take it that this is a work in progress then Ken 14 and counting. There must be well over 1000 pubs so far and we started off by only doing English ones. There are a couple from abroad that I have used.
