London calling

'Jolly Boys' have been on the same pub crawl for 10 years

- Hayley Parker

A DRINKER and five friends have embarked on a 'never-ending' pub crawl by visiting London on the same weekend every year.

Richard Moore, from Stone, is trying to tick off as many boozers as he can.

He is a member of the so-called 'Jolly Boys' who began their annual outing nearly 10 years ago and have so far supped in nearly 170 of the capital's best watering holes.

Richard makes the journey from Stone, while his mates are based all over the country. He revealed that it all started with a book on the Big Smoke's most historic pubs.
