April 7, 20251 yr No, not actually on Nelson’s Square. Opposite, I mean right opposite that tobacco shop and the hairdressers. A little tiny place. Definitely no bikini clad bar staff. They were knocking Stella out for next to nowt.
April 7, 20251 yr Bugger me it is. I do apologise. I didn’t think it was that. I thought it was just a pre match place.
April 7, 20251 yr 😁No probs. The bar staff wore Budweiser branded swimsuits, always started in there on a Fri and Sat night.

May 5, 20251 yr Author Just bobbed in my local for a cheeky bank holiday pint. £2.65 a pint for Monday club. Can't grumble at that.
May 5, 20251 yr i never drink on a monday, it's the one guideline I try to live to that keeps me from thinking i'm a proper piss tank but as i was knackered from saturdays boozing, I didn't drink yesterday and now feel like I've missed out on a bank holiday booze so i'm going to get some cans in to make up for it later and convince myself i want to watch palace v forest whilst supping them will definitely regret it in the morning
May 5, 20251 yr I'm at the Trafford Centre at the minute going to need a few drinks to recover when I get home. No pubs near me any more so it'll be home measure rum and pepsi

Lived and worked in Rochdale for half my life, improved a fair bit over last couple of years pub wise, they do a 'Dale trail' thing over Easter, across about 10 pubs in the town. Baum always been my favourite, though Flying Horse runs it close. Couple of new micros, one called Our Gracie's is pretty good.

It must be a stressful experience as you now need a few drinks , therefore dont ever go there. I have never been in my life , and never will , its a shopping mall .

I have never been in my life , and never will , its a shopping mall . Mini me wanted to go to Legoland discovery centre for bank holiday. TBF given my stupid brain anywhere with people is a stressful experience. He had a blast so it was worth the stress, but still had a rum and pepsi once he'd gone to bed. Don't mind it during the week when it's quiet but on weekends it's a hellscape.

No beer for a bit now. aye signed up for this 6 week program at the gym - like a transformation thing to get lean proper calorie and protein and nutrition macro counting and all that all unique to you, based on your height, weight, bmi etc - guy who runs it reckons it's pretty fucking strict waiting on a start date so that should be fun, and an excuse to knock the booze on the head even though I'm off for a week at end of the month so that will probaby fuck things all right up
