I have to say, I'm just pleased they seem to be heading in the right direction with this - which is more than can be said with the last refurb and the long, long shutdown.

I know it's not been called The Honor Oak since 1864 and it's slightly faked tradition but presumably it's been a pub since then. "Pub since 1864" sounds a bit blunt while "The Honor Oak (formerly the St Germains) since 1864" sounds clunky. "Buster, incorporating Whizzer and Chips", as a friend of mine used to say at random...
