Pub 3031, Golden Ark, Selsdon. Oh yes, the micro that yesterday couldn't quite deliver. High quality. Complimented guv'nor on his tropical Hammers shirt and Hull City colour scheme , but he got spat on by one of our fans once, oops. Then a kind BRAPA follower said hi.

Pub 3032, Royal Standard, Croydon. Exciting 'survivor', you can tell that by the location. HSB drinking well, though ppl like to tell me it ain't what it was. Intimate boozer, very jolly, no sign of Winston the cat yet. Good owl theme. Rugby player nicked someone's wife.
