English 'Pub' not a copy...lol
Hi all the local pub down the road from me in Rye, East Sussex has just got a web cam installed (needs putting straight-you'll see what I mean) and if you wanted to remember what a real English pub looks like follow the link... the Barrel you see on the Bar is a cider from local town Battle (yes the one where the Battle of Hastings happened) and it is somewhere between 7.5% and 9% depends upon the apples and is hard to gain a true %.... but drinkin it you can tell 
:scared: ...... well I've been to "British Pubs" in Winnipeg and they can't match this place... building was built originally in 1486 i think.... so it's dark oak beams...low ceilings... open fires... noisy... and they sell Cider that does not require a re-mortgage for a pint. (eg. Strongbow in Canada). but I still LOVE Winnipeg.... I will not be leaving once I arrive. 
http://mayorcam.mine.nu/javascript/index.html click on live stream for a moving version of the pub...lol

Sent application in march and landed on 13th Oct. Not bad eh! We gave up the Rat race,small house,and credit card existence for a quiet life in a big house with lots of land in the country,and we've just been chillin for 3 months. Its great,have only heard one siren in 3 months, and that was just the local volunteer fire fighters being a bit over zelus.
