Wonderful pic of the Lismore 👍
Oddly, there were no new entries in Glasgow chapter at all (I'd finished it in July doing almost the same itinerary as you). Must be rare for a "county" (bar Rutland).

Possibly the smartest new entry in the new GBG, Barnby Moor's Olde Bell adds Retired Martin to Bing and Olly on its list of famous visitors.

Banners out for Retired Martin's first visit to Toddington in a decade.

Your late-night tipple in Brasov. Looks like soy sauce, tastes like Dracula's blood.

Barry White the star of the new Matlock GBG tick, the ultra-cheery Remarkable Hare, where "tables obscuring the path to the bar" make a reappearance.
