    JDWs should start thinking about parking areas for scooters for the disabled. These vehicles cause more obstruction than prams in the Kings Fee. I know cos' I sometimes drink there while waiting for my bus.

    Maybe they should follow grot burger chains & move to drive through, or even "drive thru"

    Or revamp as "scooter inn"

    Can't see it taking off, as the start up costs would be prohibitive....Would have to cover everything in half inch steel to stop it being demolished.

    JDW is already working its magic in Wellington , the William Withering has only been open about 3 months and a quick walk round tonight and the 3 nearest pubs , the Dun Cow and White Lion are closed up and Rasputins is boarded up , not my sort of pubs but still a shame

    Dun Cow & Rasputins were no loss to anyone but the local pondlife in my opinion but I'm a bit surprised about the White Lion.
    A pub is for life not just for Christmas

    Rasputins is no suprise as Pussycats nightclub now opens early and has free entry before 10 , the Dun Cow was a suprise , its always been the dossers pub and pretty busy because Wellington is full of them , the White Lion tried its hand at being a real ale pub and failed dismally (TT Landlord on if you were lucky), its been up for sale for a bit now , but whos going to buy a rundown pub 100yds from a new JDW
