I Don't Wear Tweed Jackets - or YUK!

[Rex_Rattus]

I too saw the riposte from Doug Middleton (now deleted) to Alan W's review of the Dog and Fox in Wimbledon.

This was from somebody who was on their first trip to the UK and I guess had been in 5 or 6 Wimbledon pubs and presumed to tell Alan (who has been in considerably more pubs than that!) what constitutes a good pub! I've been in the Dog & Fox and although I don't agree with Alan that it's the worst pub in Wimbledon (the Fire Stables gets that accolade - the only Young's pub that doesn't sell real ale, and which even I haven't yet steeled myself to go in and review; and even Strongers hasn't been in it!) it's not good.

And he talks about "beautiful people" in there - this where the Yuk! comes in. And cheap prices! in Wimbledon Village! You must be joking!

As well as accusing Alan of being an accountant (the mind boggles) he also reckons he has something called a pocket saver. I've no idea what a pocket saver is, but I'm willing to bet that Alan hasn't got one!

It's a bit of a shame that we can't keep these ridiculous postings just to remind us just what sort of stuff we are missing from Another Place!
