    I was in the Swan in Weymouth this week and looked up Aqualungs review.Five and a half years ago he paid £2.69 for a guest beer this week it's £2.49.The good old days might be overated.

    Done those. No real losses there apart from the Percy Shaw which was a nice MoR Spoons with a decent view across the valley. Leased though, which I guess sealed its fate. Halifax could certainly support 2x Spoons based on my visit.

    This is one of the better ones, probably because of the location, largely devoid of all-day drinkers with customers comprising underpaid criminal barristers.

    It would seem from those stats the formula is failing ?
