My favourite bars/pubs etc.

1. The King's Arms, Poland Street, Soho - a fun and happening proper boozer, attracting a crowd of the hairer end of the gaydom, but is all free to one and all. Celebrities often on show here include our very own Sarramkrop, who likes nothing better than to program the jukebox machine with Yma Sumac numbers, and then sing along to them whilst wearing a bowl of fruit on his head.

2. Retro - near the Strand, London - a mixed gay/straight place with an "indie" vibe, some good songs on the jukebox, and a friendly crowd who are always on good form.

3. The Glasshouse Stores, Brewer Street - Not far from where I work, this Sam Smiths pub have a goodly range of own-brand beers (the wheat beer comes especially recommended by me), some rather tasty pub grub, and an atomsphere that is both snug in winter and chilled out in the summer. I like this place, I do.
