    That's a little harsh, Jim. It's a pub, when all's said and done. Sad to see any of them close.

    As Stonch tweeted yesterday,some other operator/landlord will come along and hopefully make a better fist of it.

    Had a very decent fish and chips in the garden of the Shoemakers on a lovely sunny day during the 2019 inaugural 'Stinkeye' Welsh Terriers 'convention', at nearby Craig y Nos Castle.
