  It’s just a week now until the World Cup kicks off, so we’ve been asking around to see which pubs are doing what in Marlborough... THE CROWN (in the Parade) They will be showing World Cup games and bottle beers will be cheaper for the World Cup period. They’d thought about dressing up and doing food from the countries which reached the final, but with Jazz Weekend falling the same weekend  this...
