    Is the pub on Collins Avenue? It's wrecking my head a bit cos it looks familiar but can't place it at all.
    It's not the jollybeggarman. The road in pic is a narrow oneway.

    Checking Properties is like playing Scrabble with a dictionary in your other hand -- not really playing the game is it? :confused:

    I didn't check the properties, I am subscribed to the thread so I receive a system email when the thread is updated. The email doesn't contain the actual pictures just a series of links to the pictures. That's where I saw the names. Everybody else subscribed to the thread would have received the same email.
