Re: The Old Ship Pub in Hammersmith......

When I still lived in W6, it was part of a great pub crawl, along the river;
Blue Anchor, Rutland, Old Ship, Dove.....then the Black Lion (by Bell Steps) if we made it that far.
Haven't been there for donkey's years.

A point for kerrins, as Underwood gets his obit in the latest Private Eye.

And R.I.P. Dickey Betts, of U.S. rockers, the Allman Brothers Band.
Saw them at the very 1st Knebworth concert.
He wrote their biggest hit, "Ramblin' Man."

Good Old Arsenal

Beat Chel$ki 5-0 (FIVE) last night,which incidentally is the Scum's worst defeat since they lost 6-0 to a certain W12 Club.
Nothing like a bit of schadenfreude!!
