Last updated : 31 January 2007 By Clive Loader
Details of pubs for the away games until the end of the season. These are the hostelries where you are likely to bump into fellow Exiles before the forthcoming away games. I have given a full postcode so if you've got internet access you can get a map of the location using www.multimap.com . If you can't find us in the suggested pub then a call to 07798 810386 will probably track some of us down.
