This is why it was rejected out of hand. I never could understand the function
of the town of Warwick in the grand scheme of things...

Shock horror news - apparently, the original Trotter's Reliant van was
destroyed by fire last week - it was bought by a garage owner in Oban
& burst into flames soon after being driven off the Mull to Oban ferry
on its way back to said garage.

A sad day...caps off everyone, this deserves a minute's silence...

Regards,
Tony

I'm a Guinness man myself so have no knowledge of 'Real' Ale :)

Both Pubs I mentioned are CAMRA members.

The White Hart Inn at Ufton
This is a smallish pub with an 'L' shaped room on two levels (dart board
on the upper level). I've had very good service here in the past (I
occasionally take my daughter and the grand-children for lunch).
The CAMRA web site mentions Davenports and Tetley Bitter.

The White Lion at Radford Semele
This used to be a Thatched Roof building but after a fire in February
has been re-built and I haven't been in since it re-opened in June.
CAMRA Web site only mentions Tetley Bitter.

Both are less han a mile and a half from the showground - in opposite
directions.
