Thanks for this; I checked out their site and realised the were already on the list.

Spoke with them on the phone. Seem an interesting lot. Have also sent them some stickers.

Thanks for this; going to add more points to OpenStreetMap and then to here when I have some free time.

Has anyone bought anything at the King William IV Pub yet with BTC?

I have a few pubs in the works so hope to add them soon.

I would just like to contribute that, what with various references to OpenStreetMap.org in this thread, that the developers behind OpenStreetMap.org themselves accept Bitcoin donations, amongst other methods (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Donate)

I searched the forum and this was the only thread with significant mention of their site, so I thought it may benefit their efforts to highlight their accepting of BTC donations, although they are not strictly speaking UK based, despite being hosted in the UK. They have, as you might expect, an open standards license pertaining to their map data. There is no information that I could find as to whether their code is open source, but it's a valuable resource regardless, and has been to me for some time now (my go-to for map data, in fact).

I shall be supporting them regularly upon this discovery.

Edit: it has already been noticed, albeit only a week or two ago (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276547.0)

Only me. Twice while I was showing the landlord the process, and once since then.

At the moment, they are using my Bitpay account to process the payments but when me and the landlord have a spare half hour I will set him up with his own account.

Training all the bar staff will be the hardest part. But to get them interested, I have given them each one of my T-shirts with their own Bitcoin address QR code on the sleeve for accepting tips.

Last night while sat in the King William beer garden, the landlady came running out and with a mixture of excitement and confusion said to me "someone's just turned up and wants to pay with Bitcoin what do I do"

I went inside and sure enough our first 3 new customers had travelled from Swansea just to have a drink and use Bitcoin.

Spent a great evening with the guys talking, drinking and playing pool (unfortunately the pool table doesn't take Bitcoin)

If you're reading this, nice one guys and see you again soon.

I've added DataShell.co.uk who are offering unlimited data backup for bitcoin only. See here:

They are also offering free accounts to some bitcoin users for a limited time only.
