    I didn't claim it was any good. Just passing on the news about it.
    Quite a few people must drink it.

    I remember people taking it to parties and then drinking decent lager that others had bought - sort of thing Elfs would do <cheers>

    I have drunk Fosters in Australia and it was very good, unlike the urine poured in the UK.

    As for parties, I was never so popular as to be invited<wah>

    My funeral will be very well attended, to make sure that I have actually snuffed it!

    I do, I have a mate (stop laughing at the back) who uttered the immortal words 'only women and nobs drink gin', I couldn't possibly comment on that. :emoticon-0138-think

    Mrs Elfs likes drinking gin and tonic, I never touched it(the gin, not Mrs Elfs) until I ran out of lager here one night.

    Pink Gin and Tonic is very tasty I have to say, I have been missing out in life. Suffice to say once I get into the Bromley spoons next March, after a Punk IPA I shall be downing a large gin and tonic:emoticon-0165-muscl.

    To not disappoint people, it will be on a Monday as you have the Monday club in the one by South station. They are then almost giving the stuff away.

    You have gotta love a spoons.

    Each to their own. There's nowt wrong with Wether spoons, although it's sometime since I was in one, my choice of pre-match watering hole is bang opposite one. :emoticon-0138-think

    I am pleased that you are not a pub snob like one of our members, I can only assume disposable income stretches further in Hull than the North East of Brazil<laugh>.

    Can you still get a beer for under £4.50 in your gaff?

    Nothing wrong with Spoons.

    There is no other place in London where you can buy a round of 5 pints for under a tenner

    believe me , I know.

    If it is good enough for a man of your substance, Bob the Builder needs to take note<cheers>

    Wtf people want to pay £3 or more for a beer when you are next door to a spoons is beyond me. As for getting a chicken burger and chips with a pint for less than £10:emoticon-0152-heart

    I’ve recently lost 2 stone you tit, if you lost 2 stone you’d have to block the plug hole for risk of a nasty accident.

    Bud Light £1.99

    Carlsberg £2.25

    The same pint in O’Neills costs £3.85 Monday to Thursday (then it goes up..)

    So you can go through the normal barriers now rather than the wide doors for luggage<laugh>.

    On a serious level, well done. I realised you were a 40" waist so am pleased your mobility is a lot easier.

    Let me reiterate- I avoid the spoons down here , Hernia Bay and Whitstable, because of the oiks and lowlifes that frequent these establishments <cheers>

    Poor excuse to try and deflect from the fact you are a pub s/nob.

    When was the last time you used either of the spoons in Canterbury?
