What gossip are you on about? Spill the beans

[Andy Millne]

Don't tell me.... Weatherspoons are buying the Red Lion?

[Dajazar]

I heard they have applied for Licence to open it up.

[Brian Cross]

Come on Guys wazdooin wazdooin eh!

I heard they have applied for Licence to open it up.

How many times have we heard this one now????

[sizsells]

Furniture shop

[Cympil]

Well i hope Wetherspoons do get the Red Lion. It`s only right that it should stay as a pub. Fingers crossed

[Mr Darn]

i second that. i know some think it would be detrimental, but me being a non-bedders resident now, i need an incentive to have a night out there, and a cheep start would be just that for me.

Wetherspoons in ashington is my starting point there, as is the wetherspoons at Whitley Bay.

Of course, i could go to the club, and pay a fee every year for membership (or be hassled at the door... my choice) to get a cheep drink.

My point is, thats just a starting point for me and many others. We dont mind the odd overpriced pint if it evens out over the night a bit!

It is a recession after all! Who can afford 2 and a half quid + for a pint, even if it is a bit more decent than whats at wetherspoons?

[Malcolm Robinson]

Is that Mr D jumping ship????????????

[Mr Darn]

Noooo, that was me dropping a penny.

You know what they say... look after the pennies...

BUT WE DON'T WANT YOU! Note to landlords - when you see Mr Darn, add 30p to the price of a pint!

Who can afford 2 and a half quid + for a pint,

Beer is not cheap these days is it. I actually listened to a geezer the other day complaining he paid 3p more in one pub than in another. Disgusting, of course. How much is a pint in wetherspoons these days?

[Malcolm Robinson]

You know I'm only kidding Mr Darn; I'll have a pint with you any time. In fact, it's your round.

[Mr Darn]

Me being round has nothing to do with it!!!
