But then I'll have to start thinking about the pub for my birthday and I can't be arsed
Porterhouse in Covent Garden?

I liked the strand pub we went to, but it was a bit pricey

I like that suggestion
It'd be fun to go back there. Might even stumble across "the statue".

*sigh*
That place was fucking rammed, but if you insist.

How about:
The Yorkshire Grey
Penderel's Oak, Holborn
Belushi's, Camden

I don't know Penderel's oak, but if it's good then that sounds good to me
Is Belushi's Camden like the one in Covent Garden? Seemed tiny when I went there, but good atmosphere.

Penderel's Oak is a fuck-off huge Wetherspoons, so plenty of space.
Belushi's in Camden is a dingy little hole with cheap cocktails, a pool table and rock music. Is that like the Covent Garden one?

Oooh...
Belushi's sounds good! Is it likely to be disgustingly busy on Friday?

It's open until 2-ish, so it's usually quite empty before 11.
There is a risk of bands earlier in the evening though.

Having said that, it's Camden so there's no shortage of other pubs within spitting distance if everyone hates it.

Well the Worlds end is nearby if necessary

Sounds like WIN.
Half six/Seven-ish there?
( Cawl, Tue 1 Sep 2009, 16:27, Reply)

Sounds good to me.

Good stuff.
It's on Camden High street... Like about halfway between Koko and Camden Town Tube station?
( Cawl, Tue 1 Sep 2009, 16:31, Reply)

Yup, pretty much spot on.

Nice.

( Cawl, Tue 1 Sep 2009, 16:33, Reply)

Wetherspoons means it's cheap but not much atmosphere then
Yeah that sounds about right for Belushi's Cov. We were sitting in the window though, so it didn't look too dingy. Cheap beer and good music

Didn't seem too bad downstairs
I'd prefer not to go to the yorkshire grey but I'll check the others out. I'll update the event at some point tomorrow.

I'm gonna poach one of these for Friday, btw.

The statue?
Was that at the Porterhouse? I was upstairs most of the night so missed all the fun downstairs
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 1 Sep 2009, 16:13, Reply)

It was *somewhere*
But I don't know where. CHCB and I stopped by it when we realised she'd missed her train.
