The Hornblower pub, named for the admiral of that name I presume. When I was a student in the early 80's I used to lunch here sometimes (a sandwich and a few pints) and I recall the jukebox always, without fail, played The Kinks 'You Really Got Me' and Hawkwind's 'Silver Machine'. Every time. Several times. Never tired of it. Hopefully still plays them today. I must revisit and find out.
