Simply text GOODPUB to 85130 and in a jiffy you’ll receive the location of the most proximate public house as recommended by in The Good Pub Guide 2005.
Wait, there’s more…
Reply to the original message within two hours with the word NEXT and you’ll be sent details of another nearby inn - thus enabling the SMS pubcrawl.
