[LRUG] New post-meeting pub

[Garry Shutler]

Not been in the Master Gunner/Finch's so not sure how they compare for
size, but the Singer Tavern
<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Singer+Tavern/@51.5223177,-0.0869236,19z/data=!4m6!1m3!3m2!1s0x0000000000000000:0x2223d9aeffbfc4cf!2sSinger+Tavern!3m1!1s0x0000000000000000:0x2223d9aeffbfc4cf>
opened a few months ago (used to be a dodgy sports bar) just up the road
from it, is a reasonable size, and has a similarly wide selection of beer
to the Lamb. Probably worth a look is Finch's is no good.

Cheers,
Garry
