No mention of such 'entertainments' here. Just about everything else though!
On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement
'Shotguns were even being ‘rented out’...', no doubt 'pump-action'?
No wonder it's been shut down.

Brewed Boy
Thanks Quinno for that graphic image ("... maybe Terry Waite chained to the radiator was in the bogs."). I'll keep an eye out when I visit in a couple of weeks.
'Beer is for all day, not just for breakfast'.
Just be lucky I didn't reference Boy George and the Rent Boy when I invoked being chained to a radiator...

Reminds me of a joke doing the rounds at the time:Just be lucky I didn't invoke Boy George and the Rent Boy when I invoked being chained to a radiator...
'How do we know that the Archbishop of Canterbury is on a diet?'
'He's lost Waite'.
The flatscreen was on showing ITV 4 which was a major negative as it attracted everyones attention to a very shoddy piece of US white trash exploitation TV. God those Yanks are fat.

It's amazing what drivel some pubs will inflict on their punters; sometimes I think it's just for staff entertainment. Still, I'd prefer the Fat Yanks show to the rubbish I experienced at The Prince of Wales.
