I was just thinking about the Old Ship about 1 minute before I read your post. Its big, we'll have plenty of sitting space for the old codgers if we get there early, and having spent a full Paddys day in there one year, I can safely say its fairly hard to get kicked out of. They also sell a loverly selection of flavoured absolut. Terry's Chocolate Oran ...[text shortened]... line and its gotten some bad reviews and some great reviews. Same as everywhere I suppose.

'How about Match Bar just off upper Regent's Street? '

Like the sound of that, though i'm not much of a cocktails man. One thing to consider is it would be a crying shame if Angie came all the way from Frankfurt and go turned away by some bouncers, no what i'm saying 😉


She wouldn't have a prob at the ship though. Any more idea's anyone? 😀

Well, there's always the Alma pub in Wandsworth Town, lots of atmosphere and no music whatsoever.

And if it's a warm, sunny day in November (not bloody likely) you can always sit outside near the river at The Ship, also at Wandsworth Town (and owned by the same business).

Licensing law changes in Nov. Not sure of the exact date though (even though I am a licencee).

I do like Wandsworth, Putney as well (used to live there). But if memory serves, it doesn't have the greatest public transport links.
