keeping it local

Round the corner from where we work, The Thatched House pub has a lovely little thing going on.

Everyday, they write up a different street name in the local area on their blackboard and if you can prove you live on that street, you get a free drink on the house.

Simple as that.

It's a small but charming way of making people feel part of a community and a great excuse to get to know the neighbours and have a bit of a knees up.

That's a great idea! They should do that on my street, there's only 4 houses, and I don't know any of my neighbours. (There's also a field of cows, a field of sheep, two horses and a goat)
Having said that, our local pub closed down due to lack of customers....
