West Beers : Every Thursday @ The Lamb Brewery, W4 4PH

Swordfish feed on fish, whitebait will probably eat anything that fits in their mouth.

Besides, was there a sustainability rating? ... "Given that UK and imported Whitebait still consists of immature herring, sprat, sardines, mackerel, bass and many others, it is not an ecologicial foodstuff. Removing these fish at such a juvenile stage, before they have had a chance to grow and reproduce, might severely reduce future fish stocks. The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) is the only non-government organisation to provide independent information on the sustainability of fish stocks and species around the world[citation needed], and to have a rating system for fish sustainability, in order to safeguard future stocks. The MCS suggests avoiding eating and purchasing the juvenile whitebait as it is detrimental to sustainable fish populations." wiki quote.

Fish are meat and should never be considered vegetarian fare. Anyone who uses the term "pescetarian" will get a slap*

Meat is animal flesh that is used as food.[1] Most often, this means the skeletal muscle and associated fat and other tissues, but it may also describe other edible tissues such as organs and offal.[1] In the Anglosphere, meat is generally used by the meat packing industry in a more restrictive sense—the flesh of mammalian species (pigs, cattle, lambs, etc.) raised and prepared for human consumption, to the exclusion of fish, poultry, and other animals.

It's one of those conundrums. Meat and fish are obviously both animal flesh, but in English the terms are indeed felt to make a strong distinction between them. I always suspect that this is because fish are a lot less similar to us than land-based mammals. A lot of people say when asked that they think vegetarianism is 'abstinence from eating meat', but it should of course be 'abstinence from animal flesh'.

Don't you start...

we happy to give the raven another go?
or the rose?

Either or etc

Rose. That's been the plan for the last week.

got to go to the rose to make a considered decision.
Doubt I'll make it to be honest, got a b'day do to go to.. and also the rollapaluza urban hill climb up swains lane at well

ok, so this week we go to the rose,

even though as corny said, it doesn't feel west, as it's nearer clapham as it is hammersmith (the original home of wests). and i feel it is too far south. and too far from anyone coming north.
south west beers???

You mean it'll take longer to get home Murts? ;p

Using Trafalgar Square as a central point, here are the distances to each of the drinks.

While it may not be 'out west' as much as some would like, the Raven is much further out than any of the other drinks. As has been noticed (venue hopping aside) the number of folk coming to drinks has been declining - particularly if you look at Souths which seems to have a winning formula of a great venue and only just over 3 miles from central - where a significant proportion of folk work. So what if the Rose is closer to Clapham (actually, as the crow flies, it is just closer to Hammersmith), there's a bloody great river in the way. Both the Rose and the Raven are North of Souths, South of Norths, and West of central.

Hammersmith may have been the original home of wests, but this is now, and we're looking for a good place - somewhere roughly west of central - to catch up and have a good time. If we can be located to encourage cross-fertilisation from other forumengers, then all the better. Venue wise - if one stands out head and shoulders above the other, then it's an easier solution.
