Some cool customers. Warm beer. Crisp conversation. Walkers welcome. On the face of it. Maximum refreshment. Forster's. Yeah, boyeeee!

Plenty of other pubs nearby, all WithASpoons. This is slightly price disadvantaged. This pub I mean. But higher (and higher) on character, clientele, charm, 'cockney charm' if that's your thing. Take your pick. Like you just don't care. Yeah.

Ye Olde Greene Manne, Rickmansworth
I DO think that some of the black-or-white apraisials administered by tuffnutparka are, at least, prejudicial.
Is, for example, everyone of the clientele at one of his least favoured pubs a 'non-handler'? Are everyman and woman a 'handler' at one of his favoured pubs? Does he or I or anyone else know the meaning of these terms?
No,no, no, no and no I think are the answers to these questions.
I could be wrong but I don't think I am.

Who is Grooge? Grudge? Stooge? It's on the tube. Worth popping one 's hesd overground once in a while to find this. You'd have to dig deeper, but, you're on the Northern line so it probably isn't possible. Other pubs involve tunneling sideways, or chance it, a risky journey overground. Probably one best taken in daylight hours, with them badgers around. Which brings me to the beer which is why we are here. But why are we here?Convenience? The path of least reistance? Entropy squaRED divided by pi, the radius of one's commute. Intesting questions, but none that I feel empowered to complete.
Back to the pub itself, it has walls, seels beer, I know Londoners are picky but reaallly. Park your barrows and Austins outside, come in, talkcockney, settlte down.
Jellied eels? You don't really like them anyway.

Harveys, need i say more. Yes, Harveys. Sussexs finest export since, well, the South Downs uplifted, the little molusscs and similar laid down their heads in one final act and decreed; Yes, we will filter your water to provide you future humans with pure water to brew with. Thank you little molluscs. Your chalk legacy is all the proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy,that I at any rate, need.
Little chalk molluscs, we salute you, and invite you for a beer, only you weren't dead
500 millon years, and were probably not old enough at the time. What elae was the pre-Cambrian for, I wonder, but to provive, you and I with pure quality brewd ale.
All that Industrail revoltion stuff was, well, mere facilitation; in bringing us closer, in spirit, if not in time, to our little mollusc frinds. Well done, I say, and may deeper tectonic movements bring us closer to your understanding of the making of a proper pint. I'll drink to taht, and then some forwere it not for your little ridged shells and filratration Gills, we would never have gotten rid of the USA and Australia and still be drinking that ice-chilled muck. I jest, course, but merely to emphasise the magnaminity of your achievements, achieved, in the best possible way, subconsciouly.

Devil take me. Dial not 666 but 999. This is an emergency. Cod Fosters required. Isee the ads Aussies drink it.......I think they judge solemly. Other beers availableon request. Worth trying.
