Oop' Norf we've got new pubs opening almost monthly, i think at last count there were 4 new pubs opened up in Chesvegas (and surrounding areas) since the beginning of the year, with a nother couple planned for the coiming weeks
They are doing a roaring trade up here, and as a self confessed "craft beer wanker", i can't get enough of them ____________________ Current Bike: Honda CG125 ES4 // Honda CB600FS Hornet // Triumph Street Triple R |

Great to hear. I love pubs but less so the 'craft beer wanker types'. There's still a decent few trad boozers in that Larnden but you now have to look hard to find them .. Suspect tourists keep the market buoyant..
..although that doesn't explain why Cambridge has so few decent ones ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

The only reason I went to pubs was for live music (mostly blues and rock).

Again, we are very lucky where we live, a very healthy live music scene round here
In fact the local "village" from us has 4 pubs (and a micropub) in the space of 200m, and 2 of them always have live music on at the weekends, and one of the other ones has a "disco" room
Then we have 2 proper live music venues in Town (one a Rock pub, the other a 200 capacity staged venue above a music shop), it's brilliant for a town of its size |
It's the one thing I miss about living near London - spoilt for choice.
And Harlow had a good live music scene when I lived there.
Even lil' ol' Witney in Oxfordshire had four or five venues that were regulars for live bands when I lived there for a time before moving up here. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Modern "societies" can go fuck themselves.

In our village we have 3 pubs.
1. The 'local', which I am currently barred from for saying '...if you are going to bar him for that, you may as well bar me as well...'.
2. The 'farmers' pub, which ceased to serve that function years ago and is now frequented by youths high on powder wanting a fight.
3. The 'top knot and silly gin' which only opens 3 nights a week and shuts at 21.00.
I have no love for any of them, and am at an age where I would happily never go into one of them again unless they change.
Are pubs dead? Not yet but they may be by the end of the year as non-alcoholics with less spending money won't be going as often. ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M
