19 July 2025
We're all going on a Summer Holiday - to pubs!​
​
A free open top bus will ferry you between The Green Goddess, The Shirkers Rest and The Rusty Bucket. Just show up, hop on, hop off, and experience all three pubs in a single afternoon.
Come and join our Shirk, Rust & Pray (2) party on 19th July. It's often joked about the 286 and 53 buses being the unofficial shuttle buses between our respective public houses so we thought why not put our own bus on! For one day only! Stephen, from the Green Goddess will be driving a vintage open top bus between the pubs. The bus will run to a timetable (subject to traffic and shirking) visiting each pub many times.
-
Get your (free) ticket stamped at all three pubs to be entered into a prize draw.
-
Food options at each pub
-
Bus will visit each pub many times (public transport also available but less fun).
-
Children and dogs welcome on the bus. Each pub has their own time restrictions regarding children (Rusty Bucket, 7pm; Shirkers Rest & GG none).
​
Timetable updated 16 July. We reserve the right to amend the timetable on the day because of traffic or other circumstances, but we'll try to let you know if we do!
You can travel on the bus as many or as few times as you like. No tickets needed! - just buy some drinks in one or more of the pubs!
