She has left now.Bloody Nora she is back and is eating and drinking her own food.Obviously doesn't understand the pub etiquette. Free jukebox called Alexa helps the atmosphere. My end of the table now full of cans and bottles but no effort by the woman to clean up the table.Feels like a Wetherspoons on a smaller scale.Thank god she has gone again. Jeepers creepers she is back again and hogging the jukebox.Bloody woman is now singing and dancing to Sister Sledge-We Are Family. Cant hear myself chugging the beer.I am offski .Wonder where the nearest kebab shop is.

    By the way I took 27 pictures of the outside of the bar which i will post later.Fascinating use of net curtains.Wonder if English Heritage would be interested in this place.Check out photo no 27which I took from the top of a bus and appears to show a ghostly old woman at the top window but when I blew it up a bit it turned out to be a bit of pigeon shit on the bus window.
    cheers john
    I score a rare maximum 10/10 for the Review. I will score Bar Brentford after tasting the Party Seven!

    PS- I hope Mine Host has sacked Bloody Nora for incompetence and recommended her to Tim for a job!

    Sadly Tim has furloughed her that's why she is haunting me.

    Tried Adnams -Triple English Hop which was well dull.Made with surplus bread from M&S so here were the ingredients
    hops ,water,barley,malted bread,wheat flour,calcium carbonate,iron ,niacin,thiamin,malted wheat flakes,wheat bran,yeast,vitamin d yeast,salt,emulsifier,e472e,e471,rapeseed oil,absorbic acid and oats. Yep just traditional ingredients.
    My son in law called it Triple English Flop. Not far wrong there.

    Managed 4 pints of Three Brothers Resilience an Australian Pale Ale. Picked up on Saturday and it had lost a lot of condition, in a pub I wouldn't have had another. Had a nice St Bernardus Prior to finish off.

    That will probably be it until Friday, I have some bottles and am waiting on more deliveries, but mustn't overdo things.

    Mine's a half of Old Temperance again today, with quite an intense citrus taste and a very realistic orange colour!
