The British Summer Time Farewell Tour - Smithfield

7.30 - The Hope, 94 Cowcross Street, EC1M 6BH
8.45 - Fox & Anchor, 115 Charterhouse Street, EC1M 6AA
10.00 - Old Red Cow, 71 Long Lane, EC1A 9EJ

Most of us probably think of the August Bank Holiday or the Autumn Equinox as signalling the end of summer but, for some strange reason, those who know best decided it was towards the end of October. Anyhow, never look a gift horse in the mouth, it gives us an extra hour to play with this weekend and, rather conveniently, tonight's last pub is open until at least midnight.

The Hope, 94 Cowcross Street, EC1M 6BH - The Hope — Victorian Pub & Pieminister Pies, Smithfield - is just a few minutes walk from Farringdon station. Leaving the station, turn right if you've arrived on the Elizabeth line or Thameslink service or left if you've arrived by underground, then walk along Cowcross Street until it bears to the right and you'll find the pub on the right-hand side.

The plan is to move on to the Fox & Anchor, 115 Charterhouse Street, EC1M 6AA - http://www.foxandanchor.com - at around 8.45/9.00 and then the Old Red Cow, 71 Long Lane, EC1A 9EJ - OLD RED COW - at around 10.00/10.15.

As ever, we may do things differently on the night. Please take a note of my number - 07761-816862 - so that you can phone me if you can't find us (but no texts or messaging please).
