I have done that a few times in my life as well John. I love the local pubs in Wales. If you go in alone, you will soon be invited to join a group of people. If you are a stranger you will soon be made welcome.
If you still 'tune in' Peter, know that I was going to write to you but have lost your email address. If you want to contact me I shall be pleased to have a chat. Hope you are well mate!

Wouldn't it be great if we all lived in the same vicinity and went into business together and opened a pub? We could call it the POE Pub, and we'd hire other people to work it while we gathered every evening for fun, conversation, laughter, music, and great pub food!

Hi Diana,

I have just thought of a name for our pub. What else could it be but 'Utopia'? or even 'Upoetia'
