    Any room at the bar? Bloody bar blockers.
    Finished my Jaipur earlier, a perfect foil for my Chilli con Carne and rice, just started a Vocation Pride And Joy, very nice. 20200411_204307.jpg

Use of BACS to pay the tab means no-one has to handle cash and I can take it home to drink while waffling away on here.

    Perhaps we ought to post reviews of our home drinking locations?
    This is my review of John,s Bar Brentford
    One rectangular roomed bar to the rear of the property. Large table with 6 comfortable seats.Bit like a micropub but no nobheads trying to get into conversation with you.Charming,generous and witty mine host.Bottles and cans only but Watneys party seven on order.Been here a while and its a bit quiet apart from a tee-total woman who keeps coming in and tut tutting. She has left now.Bloody Nora she is back and is eating and drinking her own food.Obviously doesn't understand the pub etiquette. Free jukebox called Alexa helps the atmosphere. My end of the table now full of cans and bottles but no effort by the woman to clean up the table.Feels like a Wetherspoons on a smaller scale.Thank god she has gone again. Jeepers creepers she is back again and hogging the jukebox.Bloody woman is now singing and dancing to Sister Sledge-We Are Family. Cant hear myself chugging the beer.I am offski .Wonder where the nearest kebab shop is.

    By the way I took 27 pictures of the outside of the bar which i will post later.Fascinating use of net curtains.Wonder if English Heritage would be interested in this place.Check out photo no 27which I took from the top of a bus and appears to show a ghostly old woman at the top window but when I blew it up a bit it turned out to be a bit of pigeon shit on the bus window.
    cheers john

    Excellent. Just the sort of quality photography this site needs.

    I'm just finishing up now having disposed of half a mini-keg of Rudgate Ruby Mild and a few cans of Roosters Yankee.

    I score a rare maximum 10/10 for the Review. I will score Bar Brentford after tasting the Party Seven!

    PS- I hope Mine Host has sacked Bloody Nora for incompetence and recommended her to Tim for a job!
