Exactly the same Nick. Got chucked out of that place on St Georges Day a few years back by Pineapple head, she said "Get out i don't serve England shirts!".
I tend to find that if you walk in keeping yourself to yourself and don't smile and look as though you might be the type of person who goes out not to enjoy themselves the two pricks on the door tend to let you in
I do not live in Coventry but tend to meet up once a year for uni reunion as studied in Cov. We have a bet can we get in Browns or not.......thing is the place is so shit when you get in there and lacking in atmosphere that you are almost upset not to get chucked out.
I have got in about three times out of ten, refused outright on the door about two times and been chucked out by a hobbit who I reckon must be the owner, small man syndrome about five times after bouncers let me in without a blink of an eye.:jerkit:
As I said don't know what Hobbit man problems is but I really would not worry about not getting in there it's shit!
