I'm pretty sure London drinks every week, judging from some of the limeys I've known.

"Maiden's water"? I'm not sure what exotic drinking habits they have where you live, but I bet you couldn't say that after half a dozen pints of Bishop's Finger or Young's Special.

Best not to go too far north, anyway. Burton on Trent still brews beers as good as you'll meet anywhere, but things are getting a bit fizzy by the time you get to Yorkshire, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne is still suffering under the heel of Scottish & Newcastle breweries, who produce undrinkable filth that one wouldn't use as mouthwash for spavined mules.

All the best,

John.
