The Earl of Chatham, Woolwich

Bands are now a fixed feature on Thursday and the brilliant Florenzo, who makes Hendrix' tunes his own, is a regular as well as Be Sharp and Purple who are a Bay City Rollers (LoL - not really, but guess which band) triubute.

Beer is Youngs and London Pride, both kept very well, and an extensive range of other stuff. Staff are all friendly and efficient. I've got used to scaling the stairs to use the toilets, but at weekends they have a chap/chapess who sells lollipops and smelly stuff when you want to wash your hands. Us blokes call ours 'the willie watcher'.

After 11, you can tell a first time customer by the plaintive wail of "HOW MUCH?????".

Devoid of character but full of characters. Bus spotters, singing stripping fat pensioner, Harold Shipman lookalike....
