        Dear Mike,

        I often call in at the Eagle and Child for a quick pint (Nos 48/9) and frequently enjoy a bacon sandwich at the local greasy spoon (No. 52) when I'm not taking lunch at college (Nos 60/61). The Eagle and Child is famous as being the watering hole of Tolkien and friends (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eagle_and_Child). I keep hoping that some of their ability will rub off on to me, but unfortunately...

          The Freshfield, a great range of real ales on tap. It's a neat idea going to the pub in a pony and trap...especially if the pony knows the way home. πŸ˜‰

                      Ron, I agree with you about those guys in Europe and their bars. This one is the closest I've found to that.

                        The bars here in High Point, NC aren't worth showing at least not when they could be compared to the ones in Europe! But, I usually go just for the folks at the bar... they can be a real hoot...

                            They don't look that good at the one here... they water down shots and limit how much you drink! What a crock of sh*t!

                                    Hi Mike,

                                    Yes, I very well remember the enjoyable evening out at Poet's Corner. A nice place with nice people, from Ireland (of course), from Holland (evidently), from France......etc
                                    And that's why I am not going to model any of the bars I visit. It's not the outside that is most attractive, it is the atmosphere and people inside.
                                    Since GSU isn't the fastest and best modeller for organic shapes, it is to much of a job to create a convincing images of the main reason I frequent my bars of choise. And....most of them do have too low an architectural or historical level to be worth being put in 3D.

                                    Good memories never faint, they draw their own lively 3D pictures in ones mind.

                                    greetings,
                                    Ton

                                        This one is still the property of the Chapter of the cathedral in my town. It used to be the cellar of the chapter's granary in the 18th century and though the granary was later pulled down,they kept the cellar for obvious reasons πŸ˜‰

                                        They have some serious competition however because the bishop (in another 18th century building, in his castle) "runs" another wine cellar, too. πŸ˜„
                                        But that's mainly for the tourists and this "ours' is for the local folks. And yes,the atmosphere of these old places rules! πŸ‘

                                        They are still from the time when the bishop was the landlord of the town and he was the only one who had right to keep pubs (obviously rented them out like today and was not selling wine himself πŸ˜„ )
