I'm not surprised the beer is cheaper Up North.
Last time I was there I got myself a pint, "Can you get a double whisky in there," I said to the barmaid. "No problem", she said. "Well fill the ****ing thing up with beer, " I said.
So I'm banned from all the pubs north of the Watford Gap.
If you can get Alan and me some photos from Harrogate which the pigeon fanciers (I've always worried about 'animal husbandry') reckon to be the finest show we'll be glad to stick them on the site.
Cheers!

Viffer,
So you think our beer up north here is like maidens water do you?
WELL !! , if ever you feel like venturing up here to gods country, then
i'll stand you a couple of pints of mens beer.
Much better than that flat coloured water down there.
And that is an offer i have to be under the influence to make,
and a very rare ocasion, so my mates tell me
cheers (hic hic ) steammadman.

Hi steammadman, my problem with beer sold in the North is not the strength or taste of it but that you get half a pint of beer and half a pint of foam. I was not aware that you lived in God's Own Country: Cornwall. However I shall not hesitate to take you up on your offer should I pass steammadman Villas. You are cordially invited to take a beer off me if you find yourself in London. Cheers! |

Sorry viffer but Cornwall can't be gods country , listen to the way they speak down
that part of the country.
In yorks we refer to you as ; thee ;thou; , read your bible pal and note the pronunciations.
nuff said!!!!

Tut! Always the north/south argument. Here in the middle of England we get the best of both 'worlds'. Now if we could just get rid of Birmingham it would be perfect......

I'm expecting some photos from the Holsworthy show Geoff.
And not just of a load of blokes doing some whole body exercise (aka drinking standing up).
Hope the show goes well.
Cheers!

As I haven't been to this part of Deepest Devon to experience a show, I'm not sure what to expect. But my camera will go with me, and I'll be in touch with you next week about posting anything of interest. Mr Sutton tells me he can't make it, and I'm not really one for drinking alone, haha.  Geoff (In chilly Cornwall - but dry!) |
