    I'm guessing here but I reckon there's more of a chance when thinking of a new name for a bar that they went on the piss down Call Lane rather than searched for ideas from Mayfair.

    I've no idea where they got the idea from but it's highly likely, nay almost certain, they borrowed it too. I wasnt suggesting for one minute it was an original name.

    Maybe the people on Mayfair were regulars in the Trades & Labour Social Club...

    I will take it that this Mayfair you are all on about is not the bingo club that was on Bev Rd.

    I tell you what, it's dark in Ella Street Social.

    You have to really stare into your hand at your money when you're at the bar, just to see it. They insist on those trendy light bulbs where you can see the ziggy zaggy lighty bits, but they give off **** all light.

    A case of fashion trumping usefulness.

    Heston Blumenthal wears those big glasses because Lee Dixon hit him in the face with a bog brush covered in bleach, nearly blinded him.

    Speaking of foodies being up their own arse, I enjoyed reading this yesterday and the comments section. Knew about Moet (hard t) and I've always said broosket-ta just cos I speak the lingo, however I never twigged about choreetho. Of course it's not choritso (which I've always said), it's Spanish not Italian. I say fajita (hard j) and Kwinoa cos it amuses me:
