BarLassofBedlington

bedlington is quiet compared to what i was used to 10 years ago, but is still busy in the right bars (depending on your taste)(que barlass)

there are about 500 taxi companys round here now, so if you cant get one on the street, ask the barstaff, they all seem to have their little cliques.

throwing out time? lol

i cant remember ever being thrown out of a bar coz its closing, but then again, i am a bit of a beer pig, i think most are about 12 now tho, with the red lion open later i believe.

well mr darn i am here I would say personally dont bother having a night out up here to be honest, its completely dead. theres a few pubs with bands on ect like the market tavern have acoustic bands on fri nites and rock bands on sat nites.normally good in there and they dont stand for no crap!!you'll def see a difference in bedlingtons nightlife if you havent been for a while!!

as for taxis, bar staff always happy to help as taxi rank dont exist anymore

I was thinking more of a privately run enterprise on Forster Avenue. I can't for the life of me remember what it's called.

is it not called bedlington pandas or something??

Come on Barlass whats the gossip?

dont know what your talking about!!!

Come on Denzel spill the beans.

In all honesty I have nothing else to say about this matter apart from if anyone has anything to say about it tell either the market tavern, the blue bell or the sun inn.

Everyone has their opinion and are intitled to it, fair enough but we come on here to chat, not to constantly hear me banging on about clamping in car parks blah blah blah

Anyway everybody be happy, you only live once

too right and if i was i millionaire i wouldnt be working

come on denzel, not biting???

certainly not i!

was on about the cat, mr darn said that the cat had a mouse the other nite??

I know everyone disagrees with this clampin carry on but as I said none of us would like it if somebody parked on our driveway as its our driveway. same goes for any business its their driveway(car park) their property so why should anyone park there without permission??

the brochure for the show house sure looks good

theres a showhouse in my street, was opened before xmas for a few wks so that people could hav a look round, I'd posted a topic on here about it.lovely inside although will probably take about 25 years to get all the houses done and by then it'll need done again because we'll probably be old fashioned by then

the only pictures he will be taking are of the none sexual nature unless he can find someone willing to pose for him

I wonder who that would be??

if you work your working class

too right you tell him, i mean come on hav u seen his car...hardly a millionaire

as if id ever marry u!

gud for you miss darn, if i was you I wouldnt either

Not being nasty! It's just what I've heard. Obviously my sources are unreliable. I just thought that the clamping was a way of boosting the old cash flow. I go in for a drink sometimes, it's the only pub in Bedlington with Raspberry Absolut Vodka! Go tavern.

I know that but just on about everyone in general. cant be anyway of boosting our cash flow as it is a company who approached us and asked if they could do it, we dont gain anything from it apart from having a clear car park for the draught and customers to be able to park in

Yea things are going well at the moment thanks business is slow just after Xmas but it should pick up soon

same for us, although seems to be busier because of the meals and stuff

Something like tis may be nice (lol)

your mad

lmao, i have, i'm currently between a thumb and a hard place.....

ah rite ok

Definitly a Harrold Wilson answer.

how you doing anyway brian?everything going ok for you?

Barr lass, of course it's your right if you own a pub.

But for example, so is charging £5 entry fee.

Neither will make any friends I'm afraid.

It's giving the pub an image of being unapproachable.

(So do the police cars/riot vans ...I've only witnessed them once mind!)

just want to say, you know how everyone goes on about how the market tavern never has anyone in and all that. well i just have to say ive now worked there for about 18 months my boss has owned the pub for 2 years we have another 4 members of staff and we have a karaoke on thurs nite, live music fri nite and sometimes sat nite so if there was never anyone in how could they possibly be making a profit??? anyone who runs a business will see that we are making money therefore we must have customers!!

Good answer, a bit like Harold Wilson.

maybe not..................maybe

Is it me or is time moving fast, the supermarkets have got Easter eggs on sale. Is it really January or did I fall asleep and miss a couple of months.

Ah well Happy Easter

happy easter to you too pete

Not as yet, camera broken.... will update as i know things....

i think we should all have a go apart from you pete, that wouldnt be fair

Thats not very nice!!!

I thought u'd went missing

yeah but surely if youve got people parking in your car park that you own you have the right to employ someone like that??I know the sun has a big car park and people who never go in just use it for convenience even though theres 2 little car parks behind the blue bell and a massive one behind somerfield.how lazy are bedlingtons people these days??I say pedestrianize bedlington front street that would be good althought it would never happen

I like the carvery. It's somewhere you can put cranberry, mint sauce and apple sauce on the same plate and nobody thinks you're wierd! mmm

ive had bad experiences in ridge and sometimes you can wait ages at the bar or for your meal but if you go at the right time its usually good all round
