Robert Lordan is a licenced London Black Taxi driver, and a great blogger and writer too. He has a love of London, and wonderful knowledge about the history of that city too.
He has produced a 13-minute video on You Tube, looking at ten famous London pubs. In his London accent, he describes the buildings, the history, and the often quirky details concerning each pub.
I am pleased to report that in my 60 years in London, I have had a drink in nine of the ten pubs featured. Only the one in Brixton escaped my patronage.
He covers a wide variety, all over the capital, and some of them were also featured in my own blog post about historic London pubs.
If you live in or near London, or are thinking of visiting the city as a tourist, this is an essential guide to some fascinating places to have a drink in while you are there.

If under this circumstance I will come to the UK again , I hope to be able to hire him as a taxi driver. I’ve always wanted to be chauffeured like the Queen.;-) Thanks Pete! xx Michael

Have your moving plans changed then, Robbie? Or is it because of the pandemic?
Best wishes, Pete.

Hi Pete, sorry, it was a fit of melancholy about the pandemic. The third wave is raging where I live and so many people I know are sick and many in hospital.
