Cask, Gas Lamp, Kings, Salford Arms, Knott, Corbieres, Nags Head etc. Yet works do would be Slug and Lettuce, Liars Club, Revs. Every time. Gas Lamp. Superb place Quote
Casino Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 I like corbieres long time ago, my mate was house dj And did many a night at the hacienda Quote

boogs Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Another fan of Corbieres here, great jukebox as Rudy says. Once went in years ago though and the urinals were blocked, with it being a fairly small basement bar, the whole place wreaked of piss. Made the eyes water, supped up quickly and fucked off, could see everyone doing the same. Quote

Their players used to have their secret Xmas party there and it is a MiB base. But despite all that it’s a belting place. I took Gonzo and his Dad in there before the rugby final once. Pretty sure I took Smiley and Big E in once too but no idea where we’d been. Grapes did used to be decent. Around there I’d also rate Nags Head, Rising Sun and Bridge St Tavern Quote

Truly great city for drinking in. Meanwhile put a pair of jeans on today for first time since lockdown it feels as weird as wearing a dress. Quote

Not in Crawley Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 It’s getting a bit moody down our local rec- pubs open, doing takeouts, all the lads who would have been out are on here and no bugger at all is social distancing. Total nonsense this now, it’s just like a normal sat! Quote

Total nonsense this now, it’s just like a normal sat! Same outside a couple of pubs in Edinburgh earlier. 30/40 old school pisspots stood on the pavement in the rain huddled under umbrellas. Police attention elsewhere so they are just cracking on Quote
Marc505 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I believe its same in NQ, mate in Ancoats says it's like a festival every night on the park near him. Nothing like that round here at moment, still just saving myself for that first proper pint Quote

But I’ve done it by having a pint stood by the car and then take some home with me. Not standing about on the streets Quote

only1swanny Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Structural racism is to blame for the impact of Covid 19 on BAME people alongside factors ranging from social and economic discrimination and inequalities - sky news. So it's nothing to do with the killer virus? Quote
