 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We cannot thank Andrew (Sussex Race Nights) for hosting a successful evening raising £800 for Parkinsons UK at the Napier Arms Pub, Gillingham. What a superb host. Full of energy and very charismatic.  We had fun from go-get. Will definitely be booking him in the future.
