AT THE HEART OF THE COMMUNITY FOR THE 52 WEEKS ENDED 31 MARCH 2014 Our strategy is clear: we are focused on developing and growing an estate of premium pubs, primarily in London and the south east, with a clear emphasis on managed operations. We will continue to invest to maintain our premium position. We are looking to acquire further managed houses, either packages or individual sites, to increase the size of both our Young’s and Geronimo operations.

Jingle Bells Winter Wonderland Tour 2013 Shoreditch to Liverpool Street
Jingle Bells Winter Wonderland Tour 2013 Shoreditch to Liverpool Street After last year’s successful Christmas expedition to Soho (which was held in February) Hickford Tours has been literally swamped with requests (two) to devise a similar event this year. So here it is and breaking with tradition it will be held before Christmas on Friday 13th December. The first pub will be in Shoreditch, the last hostelry will be in Liverpool Street. In between we’ll take in the vibrant Brick Lane area and another 6-7 pubs. It’s sure to be fun and you might even remember some of it. We’ll have drinks, drinks, a smattering of A – Z list celebrities (probably) and drinks. If you’re not planning to bring your own supply of nuts, food, as ever, will be taken on the hoof. ___________________________________________________________________________ So where are we going….? Shoreditch is our first stop!

We already know that when travelling together in a group we look like institutionalised Public Sector workers. You are of course more than welcome to try and grow a beard (especially the ladies) but in the long run you’ll only be fooling yourself and embarrassing your families. -
