Great atmosphere considering it was limited. Not really family friendly with the limitations but lovely to be back, bookies taking cash bets etc, great to seeRealrocknrolla wrote: ↑Mon May 31, 2021 7:50 amHow was the racing on course?

I normally go to Newbury every mid august but if its not the same atmosphere will be gutted.

I used to frequent Newbury when I lived in London. I hope they've replaced that grandstand. After the Bradford fire I always thought of that narrow winding staircase as a death trap.Realrocknrolla wrote: ↑Mon May 31, 2021 7:50 amHow was the racing on course?

This is how much a pint should cost. I'm going out for a pub meal tomorrow but it's just one or two pints and then canned beer at home. No way would I sit in a pub all night at those prices.invisiblelayer wrote: ↑Sun May 30, 2021 10:01 pmRant corner.... £5.10 a pint of Welsh made 4% Stella today at Uttoxeter my local track.

Don't blame you mate. Tesco have Paulaner Helles bottles 3 for a fiver. ASDA have Budvar Czech Budweiser in 12 cans for £9. Don't need the pub anymoreDerek27 wrote: ↑Mon May 31, 2021 7:08 pmThis is how much a pint should cost.invisiblelayer wrote: ↑Sun May 30, 2021 10:01 pmRant corner.... £5.10 a pint of Welsh made 4% Stella today at Uttoxeter my local track.

Life hack - you can buy some cans from the supermarket, put them in your pocket and take them over to the tables outside the pub to drink. If anyone challenges you then you explain that you are an asymptomatic spreader and didn't want to risk infecting the staff with a virus by ordering a pint from theminvisiblelayer wrote: ↑Mon May 31, 2021 7:44 pmDon't blame you mate.

I offered to buy one of my neighbours a meal down the pub. The flipping wally phoned to say he's gonna be 90 minutes late and thought I'd be happy to waste time waiting for him! I must be living in the wrong place. Why am I surrounded by so many flipping misfits?
