-=> Quoting Fred Runk to Suzze Tiernan <=-
Hi guys and gals....
DER> Yes, that's what Fred told me. I think it would be kinda fun to do
DER> the research for her books! Considering that even the smallest
DER> village has at least one pub, it could be a life long project!!
ST> Can I join you? I'll take notes for you.
FR> I'll volunteer to carry your notebook and writing materials.
ST> We'll have a great time together - anyone else want to join?
This must have originally been in one of the mail packets I lost when I
was setting up my new communications program! What a wonderful idea! I
know exactly where we'll start...The White Hart...in Witley, Surrey.
Beautiful little pub, established before the Pilgrim set off on their
great adventure. There's an old Church just up the hill a little way
that was built in Norman times. Let's see, what else would you like to
see? If we go in the spring, there is wonderful wooded area just down
the road where the blue bells are so thick that it looks like blue
grass, and aroma is heavenly. There is a little brook to paddle in, or
a nice quiet lake to fish for trout...
About ten miles from there is Guildford...the highstreet is paved with
cobblestones laid by the Romans, there are the ruins of St. Catherines
Abbey, which Henry VIII burned during his great snit, the Cathedral, a
really nice little pub just down the hill from St Catherines, where the
Pilgrims actually stayed on their journey to the Mayflower...
How long do we have for this "fact finding" tour?
Get your passports ready!!
