- Thanks Steve.

- I agree that a lot of the information is available elsewhere.
- The CAMERA guide is very inconsistant - and does not provide info
- about local events, beer promotions etc. I certainly dont want to
- go to a pub with a Karaoke night or one packed with students etc. So what if
- it only gets postings like "Is there a FIRKIN pub in Canterbury ?", "Is
- there a student pub in Manchester !!?". Such info. is useful.
- I would have thought such info would be useful for Academic and Student types
- with things like couses and conferences to attend.
-
- The British Pub is unique, along with the beer and the hangovers.
-
- So, lets get talking about it.
