Talking to friends anout Pub names they tell us when on their hols they went into a pub called 'The Cat & Custard Pot' in Kent.
Are they pulling our leg? Do you know it?
My goodness, tenrec and answerprancer, I just looked on the ODG web site and see that a family with the name Walmsley have had the place since 1983. I have sent them an e-mail to see if they are related to Bryony and, if so, to pass on my best and my e-mail!
great food, a wine list 10 inches thick and probably close to 100 whiskeys and just trying to remember mein host - they had the Georgian house nearby for b and b though I have always stayed in the Inn. They sold the business, even though their daughter was still working in the Inn. Last time it was ok but not as good as it used to be.
Good luck DT - the ODG is one of my favourite pubs in the whole of the UK, that would be a nice link. I have a few pics of the big yellow Sea King in the carpark after it dropped off several bedraggled walkers one rainy day my friend Pete and I called off a big walk. It was the longest time I think I ever spent in a pub - the weather was cr@p!
have you been to the Oxenham Arms at South Zeals, ratter....good food there and a lovely old pub - Charles Dickens was holed up there with snow on Dartmoor for two weeks writing A Tale of two Cities....might stop there this coming w/end as I am going up to the Abingdon area in Oxfordshire.
