Haven't been in for years, but yes, was a nice pub back then. My cousin and her husband used to live in the cottage next door but one. Very handy that. They now live in the Old Post Office a couple of doors down from the Rose & Crown. Boozy bleeders! 😄

Shoot, you fckr!

That's nice.

Sad for Yorkshire. No, not really. Can't stand 'em. Take 'em down Vaughan.

Dion's (Longest in the) Showers.

Ahem. 30000.

Only at the BPA while supporting the real Coventry club. As it should be.

Oi, I'm nearly in my seventies and I've been a dumbass a fckn sight longer than yow. Johnny-come-lately dumbass!

I'm fairly sure they don't want to own a stadium. I bet they'd like to sell one though.

Probably. Richest club in the world, innit?

Never heard of Star Pubs. It was NBC when I was a kid, before Watneys took over. Travesty!

Can't really comment as the last time I went was on my BMW K100RS - and I sold that in about 1989. From memory though, it was very nice.

The current landlord, recently installed Scottish guy, seemed quite chirpy, and they were exceptionally accomodating. I can't really comment on the snap as ours was just the standard finger buffet kinda thing. Very acceptable though. I must get back soon to see if he's framed and hung the copy...

Just dragging this back out. Sorry! Mention of the Friendly (it was my local, born just a few doors up Fair Close from it) reminds me of real pub cuisine. When my great friend Jim Higgins and his wife Margaret ran it in the seventies, the food serving was bag of crisps - with a pickled egg in...

Not for me. Tried it, didn't like it much.

As I don't drink alcohol any more (too dangerous for me; gave up in January) I can't really contribute to this thread like I used to. However... I do permit myself an occasional alcohol-free beer (yes, many are 0.3 to 0.5 percent, but low enough not to be an issue). Neck Oil was always one I...

Maybe slightly left field, but it could be worth talking to campervan insulation companies and converters. Most have a wealth of experience in insulating and vapour-barriering small spaces (often for people to live full-time in, so needs to be good). There are lots out there as Google will...

A good few. Labour my arse.

It's an extra grand income, plus beer money. I'm not proud. I'd take any bugger's money.

Just checked. Alo was 22 and a half stone just before he moved to Cov, and was for a while the heaviest player in the Prem. Just behind Mickey Quinn then.
