Excellent. I drank ESB (Extra Special Bitter) when I was a youngun, but prefer the London Pride now. There's a few Fuller's pubs past Oxford now. Brakspears is lovely (pronounced brake'speers to the uninitiated). Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________
