incidentally the Inn has 60 rooms, looks like we'll be taking up most of them!!!
To which I add the following advice to anyone else staying there:

Wadworth's 6X is a very bitter, weak and often soapy tasting English Beer. Unless you've had it before then please stick to the Heineken or better still Harp. These will be more to your taste than the warm, flat, overly bitter, watery, rather unpleasent Wadworth's.

What are the chances of getting Boddingtons.... mmmmmm

Yes, if they have Boddingtons, particularly smoothflow - then drink that - just avoid the Wadworths unless you're either experienced or your wife/girlfriend/room mate doesn't mind a bit of sicky uppy on their clothes

That I grew up in the age of chivalry but have lingered around too long and have become a dinosaur in this modern age

That you might be a friend of Dorothy, on the bus to Hebden Bridge, or a fan of tennis, never crossed my mind

Sorry for any implication however caused

Well suggesting that I have a wife or girlfriend is a pretty big implication

No self-respecting Buddhist would admit to a 'constant craving' though would they?

If they were practicing self denial well enough they would!!!

Prefer the beer swilling buddhists myself!!!

But do they sell Wadworth's 6X ?

I can't comment on the 6X situation, but rest assured no matter what accommodation you have in longford, it will not be far from the other. Longford is a very small place, and very close to town. I drove past them all yesterday and the TravelInn in Twigworth is exactly a mile from the Travel Inn in Longford, and the Longford Lodge B&B is just 200m further out of town than the Longford Travel Inn , the one with the beefeater restaurant/pub.
