CAMRA Bexley Branch is sad to announce the death of Peter Trout, a long-standing branch member and stalwart of its activities, particularly the beer festival. Peter was one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet and will be missed by many.

Even Martin's getting on the full pint bandwagon (when the click-baiters aren't trying to convince us he's been arrested). With prices as they are these days it's well worth keeping an eye on your full glass. www.moneysavingexpert.com/team-blog/20...

No matter what you prefer to drink in the pub, you should be angry at Carlsberg's attempts to dupe all of us.

If you spot this on the bar, please report it here to support CAMRA's complaint to Trading Standards:

It is with great sadness that I report the passing of one of our longest standing members, Martyn Nicholls - a founder member of Bexley branch and branch Chairman for many years. Upon relinquishing that position he was voted in as honorary president. Funeral arrangements not yet known.
