Re: Birthday Challenge V2
Not always, although at Waterloo it depends somewhat on where you are going next and whether the exit half way along the platforms is open. (even then you can still be scuppered if your train parks behind another one).The Orange One wrote:Remember, the best carriage for a terminus is the one at the front.

Re: Birthday Challenge V2
It's not essential. How about the Bree Louise near Euston, before it's knocked down for HS2? It's a very nice little pub...

Re: Birthday Challenge V2
why did I pick such a nasty challenge to plan for?! 
My research time is tomorrow and I don't have a route I am satisfied with or even finished yet. Ugh.

I have bad time management skills and sort of managed to not scout any pubs today. So I guess a safe bet is the Champion. It has a dartboard and we know other pubs nearby!
