As discussed on another thread - Pubs that advertise Christmas in September.

It must be a southern thing because I hate mushy peas and wonder why anyone would choose salad cream over mayo.

I Love plenty of mushy peas with pie & chips or pease pudding which I don't see much now. Your right about salad cream though disgusting stuff much prefer egg mayo. What about Faggots Mushy peas & chips now thats the sort of pub grub I like.

#29 Music playing out of speakers in the garden - which is annoying if you are near the speakers but even more annoying if you are not - the noise sort of half disappears in an irritating manner.

Oh I don't know...the KIT in Sheffield has that and I rather enjoy it (but then again it is set-up properly and the music selection is good!)

Not sure if i have mentioned these before but:-

# 425: Ordering a pint of MILD, only to be told...... we don't have any on, but we have Worthington's - What has that got to do with the price of eggs? It is like going to the chemist for an asprin, to be told.... we don't have any, but we cough medicine.

#622: Ordering the same pub meal as your mate, and when it appears it seems to be half the size. Then, #623, being asked if everything is alright.

On similar vein, ordering meal, then looking at another table and wishing you had ordered what they had

Yesterday ate in The Hare & Hounds one option was chicken liver pate, now I find on Trip Advisor it is special home made recipe & lovely, bu66er

Essentially already covered up at #1b, but index now amended to embrace any unsuitable alternative.

#910. Weak Tea! This one's by proxy as I've never personally experienced this particular annoyance. Mrs R and a couple of friends order tea; a big pot of tea is produced; comes out as weak as dishwater; it transpires that only one teabag has been used for tea for three people. The ladies make the valid point that if they're charging about six quid for the pot of tea they could reasonably stick a couple more teabags in it for a few pence a go! Fair point.
