Word of advice, Old Slug Porter is not nice. I think it may be made with bits of real slug it tasted that bad.

Skull Splitter is on the list! Thats annoying though cos this is the one weekend I cant go anywhere. I even know someone at Oxford I could stay with

Balls!!

Is this an annual event Simon? Roughly same time each year? If so, I will most certainly pencil it in for next year!

Little update for those that care. Am now on 53.

Also made a bet with a friend for £100 that I wont be on 250 beers by October next year. Risky on my part.

There's a few pubs round Derby that have a lot of Camra stuff. Brewers Tap, and the Greyhound, both owned by the Derby Brewing Company.

Little update.

Got to 87, then had a mare and deleted the photos off my phone for 7 I had yet to upload. As the rules stipulate you need a photo to back it up, I fell back to 80.

However I was in London on Tuesday for the Arsenal game so went up early morn and managed 10 in a place called the White Horse, Robbo told me about this place so thanks to him.

Then Wednesday morning I managed another 2 quick ones before heading back to Bournemouth.

Icluded in that haul of 12 was a re-do of a deleted picture and on Monday I also re did another deleted one which has now taken me back to a grand total of 93.

If it wasnt for deleting those pics though I would officially be on 98

Even more determined to finish now.

I bought this book after reading this thread but so far I haven't properly started the challenge (with photo's etc.) I'll maybe join your Facebook group once I get started. You'll all be way ahead of me though.

I would be plugging the phone in and using something like Zero Assumption Recovery to get them back.

Interested to see the list. A lot of the ones you've mentioned are fairly easy to find in some of the places I go.

Added to FB as well.

I tried a few different data recovery software but will give that a go tonight!

Bournemouth is a bit tame for different beer, there's 60 million postcards which had a fairly good selection but other than that it's not been to fruitful! London has been Brilliant so far!

I'll start typing the list or I'll try scanning it in and posting it today! Might be quicker to scan
