Visited 14th April 2012.
From the Wimbledon underground station we had a bit of a walk to 'The Wibbas Down Inn' (great name) which was nice in the sunshine. By now it was lunchtime and it was pretty busy inside with a lot of people eating. So we thought we would too. Mrs S. ordered the ham and eggs with a Pepsi and I went for the chilli with a pint of John Smiths. We had managed to get a table almost directly in front of one of the screens where we could watch the start of the Grand National coverage. We still had plenty of time before the race started but we had already started planning where we should be to watch the race. Mrs S. usually manages to pick one of the top three, I usually managed to pick the first horse to fall. But I felt this year would be different!!! We had started our journey on the District line and the plan had been to walk from 'The Wibbas' to South Wimbledon where we would pick up the Northern line and visit a few pubs near to the stations on that line. I asked a barmaid for directions who gave me the best instructions ever with every route marker being a theatre, nightclub, pub or kebab shop. We had no trouble finding the station.
