Wait til I'm "RSi" and I don't mean repetitive strain injury.

No one does real time face to face any more. ;)<br /><br />"Great little sesh with Martin & Christine Taylor on 15th, another December highlight"<br /><br />RM mentioned that too in his December stocktake (though you lost out in the overall award for the year). <br /><br />"Over the course of 2018, I visited 447 pubs in the Good Beer Guide,"<br /><br />*cough* 532 for RM *cough*<br /><br />"I feel kind of proud, kind of ashamed."<br /><br />But just think if you'd kept up that monthly total all year!<br /><br />"Upshot is, I go into the New Year's ticking tomorrow on 1446 pubs in the current Good Beer Guide, 2417 in all editions. "<br /><br />Congrats. And I mean that most sincerely.<br /><br />"So now you know."<br /><br />Crikey. What's the deal with the month of May?<br /><br />"Blackburn when I was young & unscarred by BRAPA. Adelphi, Aug 2012. Scary but brilliant pub."<br /><br />You don't look a day over 25 there. :)<br /><br />"I'm going to do a quiz so you can see how BRAPA you are!"<br /><br />I'll start cramming now. ;)<br /><br />"Tom thinks I'd be better cracking on with Derbyshire"<br /><br />I kinda agree with that. :)<br /><br />"and spend spring and summer evenings cracking on with pubs over there."<br /><br />Well get bloody cracking then!<br /><br />Cheers!Russtovichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11493687426847380993noreply@blogger.com
