12 till 2 and 7 till 11.
By the age of the landlady I think they may be Boer War opening times.
 

@Lambchop I ended up going to the Golden Rams with my Grandad last week and decided to finish the day with a drive to the Barley Mow and it ended up being closed (think the shop next door said it doesn’t open until 7), so I missed out but I will get there...one day.
Ended up going near his and up to the Lathkil though so all was not lost!

Yeah and him too...

In Derbyshire for nine days, loving these prices, Moca, Matlock 5.6 abv.

Kick em in the plums!

When you've got a small stone stuck on the sole of your shoe and you're too embarrassed to lift your foot to remove it in public and you look for an opportunity in a side alley to discreetly do the business and it goes tih tih tih with each left step and everyone is looking at you and the alley is taken by a drunk and his girlfriend and then your mom shows up.  That irks me every time

In a nutshell, all Americans.

I'm a pacifist and abhor violence, but there really are some people who deserve a swift punch in the face.
Feel free to add any people you too think a clenched fist to  the nose is probably too good for them.
People who drive with a dog sat on their lap.  People (okay Americans) who say I’m moving to Colorado because it’s legal to smoke weed. How about just smoking it at home and closing  the door and windows. I suspect you will get away with it. People who mange to insert pivot, optics and double down all in one sentence when talking about politics. People (okay Americans) who ask me if I've ever met the Queen.  People who say 'did you break the Internet?' or call the Internet the Interwebs People (okay Americans) who only buy lottery tickets when the rollover is larger than the GDP of half the countries on earth. Is $50m not enough to waste your time on then? People who kick off any defense of Trump with, 'Yeh but what about Clinton and her emails?' It's time to let it go, you won over a year ago, he's still an assclown. People (okay Americans) who cannot get their head round the fact that Northern Ireland is part of Britain and that Rory McIllroy isn't Irish, he's British. People who don't pick up after their dogs at the park. You're the ones who should be on leads. People (okay Americans) who want to build a wall to keep out immigrants even though they themselves are immigrants. People who say 'we only use 10% of our brain' You may do, but the rest of us use 100%. Try taking some out of you doubt me. People (okay Americans) who say ‘guns don’t kill people, people do’ People who claim to be Law of Attraction experts and say quantum mechanic can explain how it works. No it can't, stop listening to Deepak Chopra and grow up. People (okay Americans) who tell me they know a fish and chip shop that's as good as any in the UK. No you don't, stop sending me to these  places that serve me with chips skinnier than Karen Carpenters left arm. People who are Eric and Donald Trump.  People (okay Americans) who claim to be Irish or Italian when they were born here, their parents were born here and their grandparents too. You're American, I know it sucks, but deal with it. People who get offended by comedians. They're joking! Anthony Jeselnik doesn't really kill babies and Doug Stanhope doesn't rape other men. If you don't like it, move on and save your righteous indignation for poverty and corruption. People (okay Americans) who strip the supermarkets shelve bare in blind panic when there's a slight breeze heading our way from off the coast of West Africa. People who say, ‘the fact of the matter is’ just as they are about to deliver an opinion or belief. People (okay Americans) who spend a minute desensitizing the handle of their supermarket trolley before they dare touch it and who then wonder why they have so many allergies.  People who say ‘I’m high on life’. Really? Well take some drugs and then get  back to me to tell me how high you really were before. People (okay Americans) who believe the earth was created 20,000 years ago because the Bible says so. People (okay me) who are intolerant of people who say dumbass things.

I used to love our Hillman Imp. It seemed state of the art after the Ford Anglia. 

Why single garages are so bloody narrow, don't builders accommodate for larger cars. Hillman imps are long gone.

Please stop.... the pain is too much

I don't know anymore... i'm losing hope either way

i hear ya
And there are at least three fake goodbyes before the real one.  Also, they block anyone wanting to enter or leave the place.  The forgetful ones are pain too, they literally don't know if they're coming or going

People who think they are perfect...

People who stand in a doorway, holding the door open, having a conversation, whilst letting all the warmth out. 
If you’ve got something to say, come back in, otherwise **** off and close it behind you!

When people quote the ENTIRE first post of a thread... we know what you’re referring to as you’re posting in the thread!

The Barley Mow!! My favourite pub. Love Cromford (and The Boat) too. Hope you've moved somewhere with a decent pub.

Rain.
Can't you just fack off now and let us have a summer.
 

I’ve probably mentioned this one before, but it keeps happening and I’m getting more and more irritated by it; paper napkins under your food. 
You can’t begin to eat until you’ve extracted the damn thing, by which time half of your chips are on the floor and the rest have bits of soggy paper stuck to them. Then, when you actually need a napkin, all you have is a ripped bit of greasy tissue. 
There’s no justification for this on any level; it’s not even aesthetically pleasing to have maroon paper poking out from under a rocket salad. It’s wasteful, annoying and unhygienic. 

Trouble is, you don't usually wake up til 10.00AM.

when this forum becomes a community of helpful mates, see the "cameras" thread as an example.
Looking for impartial advice, post your questions on DCFCfans and get some. Gives me a warm feeling.

Wonderful though that is, having a name that sounds like vagina bottom is pretty awesome to start with. 

Probably my favourite anagram of all time is the one for the old Conservative Health Secretary: Virginia Bottomley...........
I'm an evil tory bigot

Thought the hot tub had died due to bad leak & no way of locating it. Budgeting for £5-6k replacement.
Handy mate Bob comes round. 2 hours later......
£8 Homebase consumables
1 fixed hot tub
£42 Bottle of gin for Bob
Both happy.
