The Trout
May I suggest another English pub that all Angels fans should visit sometime? OK, maybe just me and the Limey and missuses ... :)

I don't know
If he was seen in an English pub, my guess is that he would be dead
Well, come see a fat old man some time!
Nahh I'll try to paste No. 27 jerseys all over the lot until the Limey tells me quite Englishly to tone it down

Notably, the Trout's sister pub is The Red Lion
Hmmmm …. Pujols lamb shank with mint sauce and a bit of bitter?

Do people really still eat lamb with mint sauce over there?
People under 65, that is?

Yes, all the time. It's filthy stuff. Anyone with any class has redcurrant jelly with their lamb.
We eat a lot more lamb than you do in the states, where in my experience it’s really hard to find. I’ll eat lamb 2-3 times a week, and almost always for the Sunday roast.

We actually make
a Lamb and Mint Jelly potato chip crisp. It is…umm…nasty.

Come over and try it...
…more Michelin star restaurants to be found in London than either LA or SF

Not Hard re: L.A.
since Michelin doesn’t do an L.A. guide…

Was in London and Brighton
November of 96 I think. Best food I had was at an east indian restaurant. Had a breakfast at a small place in Brighton that was as bland as bland can be and there was no salsa to be had. But I do have to say that they do fish and chips and beer very well. The fish and chips I had were great, the bangers and mash were ehh. The food does probably represent the rainy, damp cold weather. I also do not think vinegar should be a staple condiment, but that is just me. The people were great including a guy I was talking to about business who turned out to be the mayor of Brighton, nice guy, the girl I was with was wondering what the hell we were talking about for so long and why I was invited to come by his house for dinner with his friends.
CONGER, CONGER, CONGER !!!
Indeed.

Anyplace special in Reading/Wokingham?
I’ll be there in 2 weeks.

Yes. Understood.
And hence my question.

My recommendation
I’d try to get some time a way and take a train ride to either Windsor or Oxford, a little bit more historic. Reading has some nice standard British shopping areas/centre etc but if you’re looking for ‘interesting’ England, hop on a train for 30 min or so.
Saying that, I’ve only been to Reading a couple of times, so I don’t know the place definitively.

Well I'm nearby LAA Surfin
Near to Reading at least. Can recommend a good Mexican joint there and a few pubs. londonhalo -at- googlemail.com

Ok so Trout keeps #27......and he turns out to be the player we all believe he will become
does that mean Vladdy dont get his number retired?
Vlad didn't do enough to get his number retired.
He was only here 6 years. Very good and very valuable, but not enough to retire his number.

Really?????
MVP, literally carried the team into the 2004 playoffs, major career milestones with the Halos….
If the Halos don't care about the way they play, then why should I?

Same number of digits as yours, just written down in a more stylish manner...

Crimony!
That’s a pub? Looks like fine dining from where I sit, but I’m a simple caveman. Nice, but don’t fall in that river. Looks treacherous.

Yup I've been on that stretch of the river, it's nasty
Went in three times two summers ago (various spots) to save little kids, including my own, but didn’t have to dive in once in 2011. My boat shoes thank the Lord.

I might wanna live at the Trout as well.
We’ll see if they have need for a live-in barman / layabout / shithead. I think my CV pretty much covers that.

I'll be in England
in March. Just outside of London in Crayford, is this pub nearby? Looks beautiful. Saw the 50% off fish and chips between 4-6PM, sounds good to me.
Wrong side of London for Crayford...
You’re going to be down the South-East of London. The Trout is about 50-60 miles North-West – a fair old schlep from there.
