There is a 'Royal Marine Hotel' in Dublin - but I do not know if the Royal Marine bit means a Bootie or maritime.

Aaaah I know where it's to now - not too far from the Great Western where my old band used to practice. Lovely area - not!! Knew I'd seen it somewhere. Never been in there though (unsurprisingly)

Now aren't you all happy to know that?!
Hornblower

Thanks for the re-supply of the piccie Rab - I can see it now. (Well - I'd be able to if there wasn't a bloody great blimp parked in front of it!!!)

Thanks for the horn player piccie Bill - I know it's not modelled on me 'cos the brasses are shiny. (Note absence of smiley emoticons)

Greenfairy - thanks for the history of GF lesson!!

That's a lot of thanks!

Thanks for listening.

..I wondered how long it would take to fish this one out...But what was the name of the pub next door to it with the good pies..??

(and yes, I did eat them all)...
Hornblower

Army & Navy...
Mr Bass Trombone

Clever Ickle Til, and as for MrJpigs comment no picture who needs a picture when Rab has posed, just transfer his image surely it won't matter where the pub is, like most of us if it serves good ale we will USE IT.
Hornblower

True Mick, v true.

And may I be the very first to congratulate you on your new mastership of the keyboard?

I understood every firkin word!!!!

Re: Pubs Called Royal Marine

This pub is in a village called Lyne which is near Chertsey - Surrey not that fr from Windsor, if you look carefully the bugler in the hanging sign is not wearing dress cords in No 1s. Frank Butler ex bugler.
Hornblower

Frank - did you introduce yourself in the introductions thread?

Not sure if I said 'hi!' If not...

Hi! And welcome.
