    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

          However one of local pubs has £2.50 a pint and two huge tents in their tiny car park - it’s like a freshers week bar...

          Thankfully the weather was not very hot or it could have been an absolute disaster.

          Will be interesting to see how large groups like Soho and Notts will he handled.

          Personally I think pubs for drinking only should be closed and only restaurants where the focus is on the meal should be open.
          I love a Toby Carvery.

          Do you take your own oversized plate so you can load right up ?

            No self service at carverys at the moment.

              I was sooo tempted to phone it in.
              Doesn't sound much like a criminal family owned pub if people still have to smoke outside. Surely the whole point of being criminal is flouting the law?

                    That's kind of their business model though

                    What do they do - carve at your table?

                      I think they plate up and deliver, like wot normal restaurants do.
