Looks like you reprobates had a great reunion...... :partyman: :drinkers: :drinkers: :occasion7: :drinkers: :wav:

Tried my best to have several drinks for each of you while I was on the Pacific Star, and my final bill suggests I may have succeeded beyond my wildest expectations.......geeeeeeeeeezus they know how to ply you with piss........ :drinkers: :drinkers: :partyman: :occasion7: ......and food....

I broke into a cold sweat last night walking through the top pool & bar area.........encountered a raucous and extremely pissy bunch of partygoers who looked like they should have been in the brig........thought you lot had come out by chopper.... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Breathed easy when I realised it was just a drunken rabble cramming as much piss in as they could on the last night..... :P :P :lol:

Sorry I missed the pub crawl :oops: ........maybe next time. :prayer:

Buck my boy, It's very important that you:..........

GET A BIG WOOLLY DOG IN YA

I wasn't involved in the Balmain Pub Crawl discussions on the day, but I think it's a great idea, big chance I will be there, might even bring a friend. :heart:

Can't wait to gather an Expeditionary :3some: Force together to investigate
BALMAIN, the only other suburb in Sydney (other than The Rocks.) where
there are so many Pubs in a such confined area... :partyman:

Image

Here's what I've found in Balmain so far... :evil3: (Note how many are in Darling St.)

Rob Roy Hotel
25 Adolphus Street, Balmain,

Marquis Of Waterford
50 Darling Street, Balmain,

Durham Hotel
69 Darling Street, Balmain,

Boilermakers Arms Hotel
178 Darling Street, Balmain,

Riverview Hotel
29 Birchgrove Road, Balmain,

The Monkey Bar
255 Darling Street, Balmain,

London Hotel
234 Darling Street, Balmain,

Royal Oak Hotel
37 College Street, Balmain,

Kent Hotel
51 Palmer Street, Balmain,

West End Hotel
74-76 Mullens St, Balmain,

MB Bistro
255 Darling St, Balmain,

Bar Contessa
371B Darling St, Balmain,

Randall Pty Ltd
255 Darling St, Balmain,

Holilol Pty Ltd
292 Darling St, Balmain,

And then if we take in Balmain East, there's also...

Cat & Fiddle Hotel, The
Commercial Hotel
Dick's Hotel
Dry Dock Hotel
Exchange Hotel
Sir William Wallace Hotel
Town Hall Hotel
Unity Hall Hotel


I'm sure that with a little bit of research we can whittle that lot down to a
'drinkable' and 'walkable' number of attractive pubs, and pick an appropriate
one to finish off the run at.. \:D/
