Sunday Roast
Jim Brittin
distance of St Albans?
As I've got someone to drive me there I prefer to go to a country pub
rather than a city/town pub which I could visit anytime using public
transport.
Thanks in advance.

Weird - but I checked it out on Google:
"Results 1 - 10 of about 16,600 for "government to plug the gaps
created by the abysmal" (0.19 seconds)"
16,600 posts.
You have been very busy!

It's a decent pub I'm after, what are sheds to do with anything?

Sheds are great, but they're mostly for drinking BA in, with a few noble
exceptions, such as the Red Shed.

I used to go to the Barley Mow in Tytteenhanger, just outside of St. Albans.
The beers there are supposed to be good and the pub does as far as I
remember, good food.
The other guy with the conspiracy theory is just some nutter who randomly
replies to people in the local groups. I assume that he/she has some mental
health problem.

Go to http://www.vintageinn.co.uk/ and search for St Albans. Have always
found the food quality excellent. Most have a selection of real ales to
chose from. All do Sunday lunch and have roaring log fires ......

'Good pub' doesn't denote. Pubs are foul places for drunks and
low-life.

pints
