That’s one that’s become one of those dreadful fucking ā€œPints Pots and Pizzasā€ places, isn’t it? They’re the pub equivalent of people who have those framed ā€œLive, Laugh, Loveā€ pictures on their wall.

Yeah, more or less, but the food is actually ok. The vegan pizza was toss, but it had no cheese replacement and the toppings were too bland to carry it, but the base was lovely. The ribs and Sunday roast are both good.

I mean, the glass collector at my local is legally a child, I think.

During the Croatia v England World Cup semi final, in a rammed pub with not enough staff a lady in front me asked to try the wine. Then did, didn’t like it, so tried another one. Then couldn’t decide whether to have a bottle or glass.

HAVE YOU BEEN TO A FUCKING PUB BEFORE AND HAVE A LOOK AROUND YOU.

  • Buy my own drinks
  • Disciplined rounds with a particular group, aware of who owes me/who I owe a drink at the end of a night
  • When I get up, ask if anyone wants a drink, hope that they’ll do similar but don’t keep score unless someone’s taking the absolute piss

Might start doing this in football pubs.

ā€œCan I try the Carling please? Hmmm - don’t really like that. How about a taste of the Stella? Mmmmm. No. Don’t like that either. A little taste of the 1664? etcā€

I remember them owning a bar in that show but never actually serving pints.
