Let's hear some recommendations for that... River Wyre pub a stones throw from me is delightful on a cold winters day. Open fires throughout. Could sit there all day. Not really a country pub by anybody's standard, but Stonehill in Farnworth has open fires which have to be lit between end October and March (I think). It's a Sam Smiths house and the MD does surprise visits. If there's a fire not lit there's trouble so the landlord is always stoking them up. Regulars call him Coal Hand Luke.

I’ll be too bladdered to tamper with the wife FFS. Surely, surely, surely in July. I am fairly certain that pubs will be open in early May, but 1+1. Hope so anyway as i've booked Crawley on non -refundable. Think that's going to be it though for BWFC games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, no phones, no music, certainly no swearing, no nowt. And spot on to last orders too. I got a bollocking when I called in after a night match and got my phone out to see the goals on Sky Sports. All the locals gasping and looking shocked. You'd have thought I'd got little Francis out and was waving him about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The landlord told me once that the owner/MD goes out and parks up on the pub carpark early mornings to check what's going on, opening times etc. fires lit, curtains open and everything.

Jesus. They do seems really strict with it. My mate got asked to leave the Bispham Hotel for sitting alone outside with his phone. Ignored them twice and then they asked him to leave. I really don't understand the policy. Talking loudly is one thing, I can get that, but what's thw difference between reading your phone or the paper? Madness.

He’s called Humphrey and is a really strange bloke, owns most of Tadcaster and won’t let anything get built. Turns up in pubs to ‘spy’ on how it’s being run but not many people know what he looks like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
