Well the experiment of posting pics and summaries of the pubs we visited on the pub crawl yesterday was a bit of a failure.
For some reason the emails just weren’t sending correctly, only one managed to get sent out successfully and it didn’t show up
as a post until almost 24 hours later, so I guess I’m going to have to figure out what went’ wrong, but in the meantime, here’s the photos that didn’t get posted.
We had a drink in 16 pubs in all, missing out the Norwood Arms as it’s closed for renovations, so a fairly full days work. We hit the first one shortly after 1pm and left the last one sometime around 10:30pm ish.

Good choice of beers, real ale, guinness and newcastle brown ale. Good menu and cheap.

N.B. This is a test post of a photo taken on my mobile phone and sent via email to flickr, which then automatically created the post above.
It appears I need to rotate the photos on my phone before sending them, but I’m happy it’s working, I can now post photos on my blog while I’m out and about!
- thought I’d spark up twitter and see who else is working on a sunday afternoon, guess I’m not alone…
- Been Moving a dozen or so domains to a different host & now have NS resolution problems, guess I gotta move them all again…

- now just gotta move 23 domains, for the 2nd time this weekend! Good reminder how much quicker DirectAdmin is than cPanel tho!
- Friday at last! Going to be another short day, need to go checkout that Batman movie tonight. #
- After the recent PR update I spent most of yesterday checking old sites to see what’s changed and ended up finding some sites I’d forgotten! #
