    Last photo is unrecognisable as the corner where the dartboard and ‘book shelves’ used to be. Looks great.

    I'm worried that this is going to go from being impossible to get a drink at due to the shit staff and service, to being impossible to get a drink at because every fucker is gonna be there!

    Looks great.
    Be hard pushed to get me out to go to the game to be honest 😍😍😍

    I can't wait for you to have 2 pints and then head home after a game...
    Been locked down for so long you might be able to persuade me to get a 3rd.

    He got half way there then realised he had left his notes on 'Surrey CC 1989-2019' at home, so turned back.

    1889? may as well be 1889. Ancient history. I barely remember anything before 2000.

    When and why did the brewery close? Was it bombed in the war? There’s social housing in the site now and it looks post war.
    The Beasley brewery was in Plumstead, South London. It was founded in 1845. And bought and closed by Courage in 1963.
    http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com/2010/05/random-brewer-of-week-beasley.html#:~:text=The Beasley brewery was in,brewing records in the archive.

    I remember well walking past it many times as a kid - on the left as Brewery Road morphed into Lakedale Road. If it closed in 63 then it was likely already closed at the time I remember it - mid 60s then. Memory might be playing tricks on me but I recall a 10ft high brick wall running all along the boundary in Brewery Road as it curved into Lakedale.

    All gone now, along with many others, including the Matchless factory in Maxey Road which is another fond memory. Ah the wonders of childhood memories.
    Remember the Matchless Factory in Burrage Place, they would line the new bikes up in the road, and if you were lucky they would let you sit on them, and let you operate the lights horn while they QA them.
    The lovely smell of lubricating oil.

    Poor Kev.

    Not a good start for The Royal Oak - 'not a clue how it started but people were weighing in from all angles. Then obviously when glasses were thrown people were thrown out. Police showed up not long after'.
