About three or four years ago I spent six weeks in Walton-on-Thames and have been trying to acquire a work visa so I could move there from Los Angeles. Not much of a demand for comedy writers/improv comics over there. I attended graduate school(MFA in Creative Writing) at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada and I experienced some anti-American sentiment there. Consequently, I expected the same in the UK. Never saw it. Quite to the contrary, I’ve never been treated so well. The British treated me better than my own family, which might not be saying much. One day while my British girlfriend(We’ve since split up) was at work I walked over the Old Manor Pub in Walton-on-Thames during the lunch hour. I expected either anti-American sentiment or at the very least, a cold shoulder. Again the locals and I had a great time drinking your superior British beer and exchanging anecdotes. I’ve never had so much fun with my clothes on! I would love to email the Old Manor Pub but can’t find an email address anywhere. Does anyone know how I can email them? This is a pub you definitely want to spend time in. If only that British lady hadn’t dumped me I would be spending my weekends there today instead of Hollywood. I love the UK. It’s the closest I’ll ever get to Heaven. Sincerely, Tom Neuhoff World Humour Hollywood, California

My ‘new’ favourite local, nice friendly landlady and a good bunch of people there as well. Frequent live music on Friday nights during the summer months. Youngs beers on tap, always very well kept.
