@BQ may remember the full run-down of reasons, but what I seem to remember is that I think @EEI got banned from the Royal Inn, the pub had become fairly packed with people doing British Military Fitness in Victoria Park, and probably other reasons. I personally would have preferred to stay, but it became a moot point when they redeveloped the pub shortly afterwards, and while I've been back there a couple of times, now I don't like it as much as I did then.
I guess East's really is dead now.
