    'Baby' on board' and all the other pointless ones spawned from that. Why advertise? It won't influence my driving, or any others. Idiots will be idiots regardless

    I might keep it on for a month or two, just to see what comes.
    I’m a telephone phobe too though, so I’ll get someone else to cancel it. 
    Tonight’s tipple, followed by Ardbeg and cheese. It’s a chocolate stout at 8.5%; not the sort of thing I’d normally buy, so nice to have for a change:

    Got a random gift from the inlaws when they saw a hand carved Rams head at a country show and bought it me.

    I don't wish to alarm you, but Gary Glitter is uncomfortably close behind you in this picture. 
    Enjoy your pint.

    Also note that you actually have to phone them up to cancel the subsription. You can only put it on hold for a few months online, which doesn't work well for telephonophobes like myself!

    Yes, many times. It’s good quality, plentiful, standard pub fare, with the emphasis on filling you up, rather than haute cuisine. They serve all day, which is an advantage if you’re walking and don’t want to be bound by usual meal times. It’s a good local, fun and friendly. If you want something posher, but pricier, try the Greyhound.
    The Barley at Kirk Ireton is one of those, experience it before it changes, places. It’s been the same landlady for at least 35 years that I know of. Numerous other great pubs in the area, Barley at Bonsall, Flying Childers at Stanton, Druid at Birchover, Nelson at Middleton etc etc. I’m now a devotee of the Royal Oak in Wirksworth, where Burton Bridge is still £3 a pint.

    It’s arrived. Seems to be a mixture of hoppy pales and novelty stouts, mainly from South Africa. As I prefer traditional best bitters I wouldn’t pay the equivalent of £4 a pint for it, but as a freebie I’m not complaining.

    Don’t you start!
    Yes, tolerated it for a couple of days, assuming it it was some sort of novelty gambit, but then it carried on and I realised, no, this person is actually going to persist in doing this with everything they post. 
    The ignore facility is a godsend in cases like this.

    Well he's probably not that well read what with him spending 16 hours a day in a cold damp pit with a dead canary in his pocket!
