Eddy's Pub Quiz

Sunday Sun scranmeister Eddy Eats has come up with a weekly quiz to get your brain buzzing . . . Click here for this week's questions. Read

Greyhound Inn, Burgh-by-Sands

MANY’S the time Mrs Eats has suggested a bit of a walk before Sunday lunch. . . but she rarely goes through with it. Read

Queen's Arms Inn at Warwick-on-Eden, Cumbria

Queen’s Arms Inn, Eden Valley

AS something of a scran aficionado - especially of roasts offered up on the Sabbath - there’s one biblical question I’ve often pondered. Read

Thinford Inn, near Spennymoor, County Durham

“WHERE shall we scran today then?” Mrs E asked as we woke up on Sunday morning. She hadn’t even managed to get out of bed and have breakfast before her thoughts were turning to the day’s lunch arrangements. Read

Anchor Inn, Whittonstall

IT’S probably only a matter of time before some of the region’s more isolated pubs fall foul of the credit crunch. Read

Pubs in Northumberland

Red Lion Inn, Alnmouth, Northumberland

THERE’S nothing more refreshing, particularly at this time of year, than a bracing walk along the coast to blow away all those cobwebs. Read

The Feathers Inn is our Pub of the Year

MRS E and I have famously high standards. We don’t expect posh, overpriced fancy food whenever we go in search of scran. Read

Pubs in North Yorkshire

The Dog and Gun, nr Thirsk

EVERY now and again, Mrs Eats hankers after sitting in a traditional pub in picture postcard surroundings. Read

The CB Inn, nr Richmond, North Yorkshire

Pubs in Tyneside

The Redburn, North Shields, North Tyneside

I KNOW it sometimes seems that Mrs Eats and I are a pair of fussy eaters but, really, that just isn’t true. Read

Coach and Horses, Leybourne Hold

WE had friends visit us a couple of weekends ago. They had travelled up from the Big Smoke and were keen to do the tourist thing. Read

Pubs in Teesside

Hamilton Russell, Thorpe Thewles, Stockton

PATIENCE is a virtue I don’t possess, so when the glum-looking barman told me there was a 50-minute wait for food, my heart sank Read

The Raby Arms, near Hartlepool

IT seems as though the world is going eco crazy. Not a day goes by without some kind of news story talking about global warming and carbon footprints. Read

Pubs in Wearside

The Grey Horse, Mill Lane, Whitburn

MRS EATS and I recently went to visit some friends in Whitburn, near Sunderland, an area the missus and I have neglected somewhat in the past. Read

The Barnes, Barnes Bank, Sunderland

AM I the only one who’s relieved that the Olympics are over? Let’s face it, it’s all just a load of running in circles, splashing about, jumping around and throwing stuff. Read
