On the feast day of St Thomas of Canterbury, the pub sign of the former Thomas a Beckett PH on Old Kent Road (now a Vietnamese restaurant); it was the Thomas a Watering in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, where the pilgrims decided who would tell the first tale.

This pub sign came from The Old Bull & Bush, a Grade II listed pub near Hampstead Heath, London. The pub was the inspiration for the song 'Down at the Old Bull and Bush' by Florrie Forde! The is now in the restaurant area of the Cow & Plough.

Sketching London: the Punch Tavern is a former 19th century Gin Palace, this historic site was named in the 1840s in homage to the regular drinkers from nearby Punch magazine. I wonder if the current sign is original?

After the *scurriless* claim by Private Eye Magazine that I & other MPs used a debate on the taxation of pubs to name-drop their favourite local boozers, I thought I’d set the record straight: we don’t need westminster debates to do it! The Mermaid savestalbanspubs
