Seeing as the met is out preventing some fast trains going to harrow on hill from Farringdon.Im going to attempt the 1st ever Alphabet drinking Challenge starting at 11am this saturday starting at Angel with a pint and finishing at Westminster.I cant be bothered to drink a half pint in every pub so it be a pint at a,c,e,g,i,l,n,p,r,t,v or w

Starting at 11am JD Wetherspoon The Angel

and preceeding through the various places Chalk Farm,Euston Square,Great Portland Street,Ickenham,Lancaster Gate,Notting Hill Gate,Paddington,Regents Park (where i might walk down to Horse and Groom)Tower Hill and Victoria

I remember meeting someone at my first Z1 challenge (last year) who had done the Alphabet drinking game. I believe they said they were very inebriated by the end, and that some stations are rubbish for finding a pub nearby!

Im aiming for 11h 5h 30m for the actual travelling and 5h 30 for the actual drinking 1 pint every 30 mins

Well i start at angel at 11am have new phone number which i sent in a pm should be quite a challenge i have i believe a pub for c and i not sure of e yet for g im going to go twice to the Horse and Groom y not paddington there is 1 in the station i believe

I certainly did my friend i be on Guinness so it sticks to my stomach and i can run then.

That would be me.

I wouldn't say "inebriated", but tired is definately an appropriate word.

Good luck

Before the ban on drinking on the tube we hypothesised a zone 1 drinking challenge, which involved a bottle of vodka and a shot at each zone 1 station.

Until it was pointed out that this might actually lead to liver failure and possible death.

Indeed a very good pub in Paddington station. The Mad Bishop and Bear. Superb Fullers beers etc.

Shame you picked a Saturday I can't make......This is right up my boulevard....Hopefully next time....

Can you also pm your new number please........

Im going to have postpone this 1 until a saturday that sara can make it with me been unexpectantly called into work.

Out of interest, what happened to the other letters (with the obvious exclusions of j, x, y & z)
I see that: b, d, f, h, k, m, o, q, s & u are missing
