    At around 08.15 today I decided against drinking the dregs of the Waterloo 200 ale with my toast. Instead, I got some satisfaction pouring it down the sink with an accompanying rugby club version of La Marseillaise :)

    On a couple of China trips they served beer with an 07:00 breakfast. Pickled chille noodles and a cold beer was unusual to say the least.

    Bookmark the page, and keep an eye on it, as the info is not yet live. ;)

    Then again, the weather could put the Kibosh on the whole thing...... :( though I hope not!
