"Breakneck speed we drown ten pints of bitter"
'I didn't investigate so as to avoid being mistaken for a striptease artist'. - The perils BF encounters as a pub reviewer.

Quinno's reference to 'the sour-faced fishwife' made me smile.
'Beer is for all day, not just for breakfast'.
I thought I'd trodden dog mess in, the way she treated me!Originally Posted by ETA
Returning the favour, ETA:
"the sound system was belting out offensive MOBO at an uncomfortable volume, grunted along to by two pasty basement-dwellers dressed like Kevin and Perry who, it transpired, were the bar staff."
The Cork
3x 6ft drag queens on my visit who looked like could land a knockout blow to most of the punters, so at least the vibe changes.
But potential for a 3.5.
After wandering around the downstairs second hand retro clothes shop for a while I realised that I was a drunk middle aged man wandering around a clothes shop looking for a drink on a Friday afternoon, a new low even for me.

Gold old Strongers, I can just picture it.
It's sometimes easy to forget that the normal folk out and about on the high street during a PuG crawl are unaware of the quest we're all on, so we may come across as being a bit bonkers!
WE ARE THE BREADMEN - UP THE BEES 
Steve of N21's review that meandered into a description of the toilets at Small Beer, made me smile; in particular the 'Krypton Factor todger test'
"Breakneck speed we drown ten pints of bitter"
I don't know how Steve was planning on "testing his todger" in those Sheffield letter box toilets, nor do I know how many "customers of the male variety" it takes to put toilet facilities under "pressure". Neither have I yet managed to work out how he would know which customers were of the "male variety". Let's not go there.'Krypton Factor todger test'
What I do know is that I stated on this site in February 2020 that the toilets had *never* been cleaned. Steve stated in August 2023 that they have "clearly been cleaned since Will's visit". Both statements are true, obviously.
Credit where credit's due, fellahs.
Come On You Hatters!
