Just to let you all know that there is a new Irish session at the Ship Inn , Jews Row , Wandsworth on a Tuesday 9 till 11 ish. It's a lovely pub right next to Wandsworth Bridge and the Landlord is really supportive. More info call me on 079706613231 All are welcome but be warned we're under contractual obligation not to sing Fields of Athenbloodyry

Martin,
Good luck with the club from an ex-Wandsworthian.
As you say, a lovely pub (Young's, I seem to remember)

Speaking as an old Wandsworthian myself, I think you'd be hard pushed to find a pub there that's not Youngs. Good lick with the session!

Just bear in mind that Youngs Brewery in Wandsworth is now closed.The beer is no longer brewed at Wandsworth but by Charles Wells. Will it taste the same ? Hopefully so as Wells's Bombardier is certainly more than acceptable.

Sorry, am I going off thread?

This is the first I've heard about Youngs Brewery closing. It was one of the last breweries still delivering locally by horse drawn dray. They used to draw water from the River Wandle, so it ought not to taste the same. I was never keen on it anyway.

This is good news!! May even make it all the way from Leatherhead one day. Have a good one & hope it continues!

Does this mean that one can sing 'Oh no, not the Fields of Athenry'?

We are allowed 2 renditions per year but only on Mondays.

I live near the Wandle, I remember a time when analysis showed it to be less tthan 50% water at one spot (fortunately a long way from the brewery).
