This next one was marvellous, but frankly you’re going to need to look at the pub porn and imagine it, so poor was my note-taking. I don’t normally stick a place straight into my coveted Top 100 on one visit but sometimes rules need to be broken (there are no rules).

I’d been looking forward to an overdue return to Littlehampton, which seems to have upped its game since my last visit, with an average visitor age some 37 years below… Continue reading BITTER & TWISTED IN LITTLEHAMPTON
