A Pub for Poconuts

Postby MartinG » Fri Sep 04, 2009 5:41 pm

Hi folks,

Couldn't resist going into this pub when I passed it at lunchtime today !

And it's actually pretty good, as well. They do a mean pint of hobson's Town Crier, and an excellent prawn cocktail.

Nice one,
but do you ever pass a pub and not go in it ;) :D
Well the music pours out on the street
Just as clean and cool as a cotton sheet

Country Rock, it's timeless
it's song will never ever age
Country Rock, it's in my bones
and they'll be singing along in my grave

I hope not. The glue that holds the UK together is the Queen, ManU (Although I'm a Hibs fan) and a good pint. Take away any of those and you have.......well you have the States.

Hope you're doing okay Rog and let me know when you need another T.

My guess? Inna-gadda-da-vida the short version.....

Or perhaps Elgar's, Pub and Circumstance.

Sadly the glue is coming unstuck, we are losing our pubs at an alarming rate.

Including our very own village pub The Crown Inn, it closed at the end of may, and so far it remains unsold. Sadly it may be sold off to developers to make into flats, or turned into a residence, an all too common occurence it would seem.

All things considered i'm doing fine thanks David. It's not a year i'll remember with fond memories though.
I'll be sure to let you know concerning the T, there may be something just around the corner. :)
