Eddie (and his dad) are putting the pub back together now, I wonder how many bits they'll have left over?
Either that or they will be foaming all those ales in their cask, whilst serving nothing.
It'll be the wiring, I'm told there's always more when you try to put it back again......
Pubs are a hobby, real ale is a passion. Oh, and like me dogs, fear no evil..........
We actually spent today 'burying' all the wires, which basically involves (for those lucky enough not to experience it!) chiselling out lines in the plaster, securing all wires in those lines, then them being plastered over tomorrow. And low and behold, we have a 6 foot piece of telephone wire spare, but only from one of 6 lines, originally all the same length...It'll be the wiring, I'm told there's always more when you try to put it back again...
It turns out we'll be re-opening the day after the winter fest up in manchester next week. May have to delay it to the Friday...

Time to revive an old thread and try and make it briefly on topic.
I notice RogerB has now taken his post tally to the point where he can control his own title. So time to once again move the goalposts, does anyone have any great ideas for new titles we can use to incentivise (abuse) our members with? If not me and Dave are going to have to try and show our imaginations, and that never ends well.
What about " Shed Dweller " ?Sorry RogerB couldn't resist it.

I know they are rubbish but its 1.40am and I am stone cold sober.
Not sure why, so long as a user's own choice is not abusive/sensitive etc.?
I actually think that's quite a good one. I know it was coined elsewhere with the puerile intent to be rude to the incumbents of the title, but I'd happily spend time in that venerable company with many beers. Aspire to shed access!What about " Shed Dweller " ?
.My comment was purely tongue in cheek. I was happy to be considered part of such company. BoFs quaffing ale in a shed at the bottom of the garden. Sounds just like some pubs I enjoy visiting.
