The scourge of sludge grey! This lovely pub in Ayr, regarded by the CAMRA heritage pub experts as of national interest, has painted all its century plus old woodwork sludge grey and now it looks like every other corporate pub.


It's #CupOfTeaSocial #QuizQuestion time!

So, here's your question: which colour is referred to most frequently in British pub names?

Quebec’s language watchdog says a Celtic pub in Montreal may have to change its sign now and again in two years to comply with laws regarding the use of languages other than French by businesses.
Two Guinness beer toucan posters featuring English words were also targeted. One came down, the other now has an English translation next to it.

Cheeseboard time.
I rather hope we can find a centre-of-Nottingham pub tomorrow which does decent cheeseboards. Anyone out there on the Fediverse want to recommend somewhere please?

P'nawn da pawb! Been here a while, finally doing an #introduction.
I'm a Brummie in Caernarfon. Loved Wales since #Aberystwyth Uni, moved back after time away working in London. Horrors of pandemic aside, remote working means I can finally live somewhere I want to be!
