The Frankland Arms, Washington

29.9.11 Welcome pitstop on the South Downs Way between Upper Beeding and Amberley...the only pub en route. Time c 1500 Weather Outstanding. Sat outside with pint of London Pride �3.35 (Flowers and Doom Bar also available). Didn't eat but extensive menu and open all day. Bar staff filled up my water bottle for the next leg of the walk.

The Speaker, Westminster

A great pub and constantly changing ales...but �3.70 for a pint of 4% Mild (very good admittedly) is a bit OTT don't you think??

The Ram Inn, Firle

oh dear...Sunny September Saturday and the Ram can't cope. Went in for a drink only (and needing a stamp for my CAMRA South Downs branch passport) and had to wait 20 mins just to get served. Two of the three handpumps went out of service whilst I was there and there were unhappy people all over the place. The Ram seriously needs to decide what it is...otherwise all I can see is unhappy punters, I imagine stressed staff and an owner raking in the money and taking the p....Shame..it could be so much better
