England visit January 2-7. County Hunting-On Track

Enjoy Grainstore, if you ever get there.

Looks like we made it, Peterborough next.

The Brewery Tap, Peterborough.


Had an Inferno, best beer of today, fresh light crisp flowery hops. Off to Grantham in a moment

Everything is on track

Train-pun intended?

off course

Live report here: At BeerheadZ, listening to Ramones, drinking Christopher, got to leave shortly for Nottinghamā€¦

still arriving Sheffield 1814 tonight?

Yes, heading Into Nottingham now, on schedule. 2 pubs here before heading to Sheffield with departure 17:17

cool, Iā€™ll be in Tap for 1815. Look for the bloke in the leather trenchcoatā€¦

any particular plans?

No particulary plan, no.
A couple at Tap, then check in and get rid of luggage, try the 2-3 best places central, early evening, could easily get derailed thoughā€¦
Look for 2 guys with small siĆŗitcases, heading for the tap list, spectacles on bothā€¦

First stop in Nottingham, the famous Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem, great place, now heading towards the station again, pit stop at Canalhouseā€¦

where you staying? most of the hotels are on the way to the Shakespeare, which is my second home. Iā€™d say the other must-do pubs are the Rutland and the Devonshire Cat

Staying at Novotel, Sheffield Centre.

on that basis I may take you to the Rutland on the way to the hotel - itā€™s a slight detour, but saves backtracking after checkin
