I think McG is talking about The Bridge at Barnes, Fleecio. I am not taking umbrage...

But as I recall, Linds' pub had very good food anyway. Though I was so hungry I would have eaten anything by that point.

*is confused* Linds has two pubs? That was the one which wasn't that near a bridge, wasn't it? That was a nice pub too :)

Fleecy - the pub you went in twice is "the Pie pub" between Victoria and Vauxhall where TBC6 took place. TBC8 would finish at Hammersmith which is nowhere near there so it's not a great location for the end of TBCing pub. However, just off the river from Hammersmith is The Bridge at Barnes - as suggested by Linds and as used by TBC3. Both part of the LindsCorp chain of pubs.
