Most weeks I try to get in to the Snug by 9pm, or soon thereafter, but it's not always possible.

Last night was exceptional, because it seems that all the usual suspects wanted an early night, so when I got there at 11pm, Jock had closed down. It's all right for me to sit around with the room open, I have 24/7 cable modem internet access, but anyone, like Jock, using PSTN is almost certainly being caned for call charges.

As to other rooms, well, I must admit I would appreciate some guidance as to what other rooms are worth entering. I have found the odd (sometimes very odd) guitar players room that affords some entertainment. There are others that I have tried that are toe-curlingly gruesome, karaoke or worse. I'll try the one that Jon and Alison mention above next time I'm passing, but any guidance would be welcome.

Frank from Toledo's room is great when open, but what others are there?
