    Regarding Traf and Sultan, beware weekday opening times - I see the Hopback site has the Sultan as noon opening but I think it's actually 3pm as reported on whatpub...

    To be honest I didn't note the keg section, I usually do but as the pub was so busy I was tucked away in a corner and forgot, maybe Tris can enlighten us later in the week.

    I rarely bother to mention the keg selection, so no pressure then.

    Is this just the Express trying to stir political mischief? I can't for one minute believe our local bar staff going along with this, but what about some young wetwipes in chain pubs who get offended by just about everything?

    I suspect this is a wind-up; who's going to police the staff? If true though, expect Tim Martin to be sleeping rough by Christmas.

    For God's sake don't tell Humphrey...
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    I was in Otley a week last Friday. The Junction (shown in the picture) was absolutely rammed at 5pm and all the pubs we visited in the town were doing brisk business. How they'll fare after April, God only knows.

    I've seen Halifax, Clitheroe and Seaton Carew similar this year.
