The Kings Head, 214 High Street

A generic Fullers pub slap bang in the middle of the throbbing heart of Acton. Despite its large size, it sadly only had London Pride and ESB on tap. It could almost be a good pub except it needs more customers. We arrived on a Saturday evening, but were among only a handful of drinkers. After a pleasant chat about football with the diminutive barman, we bagged a seat by the window to observe the thrilling goings on in Acton High Street. We gazed at some tumbleweed being blown down the road by the arctic wind. Eventually three community policemen appeared. They were probably supposed to have been patrolling the South Acton Estate, but had chosen to retreat to the High Street instead. After a couple of minutes even they disappeared leaving the High Street looking like a ghost town. Turning our attentions back inside, we noticed some graffiti on the back of our seat. It read: “Richard 4 Michelle”. Then we noticed some dubious stains lower down on the seat which hinted at Richard and Michelle’s erstwhile amorous activities. This proved to be the catalyst for us to finish our pints and press on down the High Street in search of other human life forms.
