What do you have at terminal 2 that is a more attractive proposition?<br /><br />I should point out that in the market near to the Corn Exchange 'Spoons, there is a sweet stall which I think fulfils all of Mr Taylor's requirements. Si shouldn't be disappointed by not entering said pub, superficial differences aside, it differs only from the other crap one in that it lacks the barmaid who I think should be in running for a BRAPA award at the end of the season.<br /><br />I preferred the Wolve's Ember to the Rutland & Derby. At least the former had characters to the place.<br /><br />Truly great Midlands pubs sell cheese and onion cobs with a doorstop of cheese for £1. The Swan and Rushes fulfilled this criterion. I had previously thought this more of a Black Country and Birmingham thing, but clearly it extends further east.<br /><br />I see no reason to think that we won't be playing Leicester City in League Division 2 next season. In fact, I'm looking forward to the administrative farce when Leicester City are relegated and win the European Cup, just to see whether they are given the same concession as the red whining Scousers.<br /><br />Silva Out.

So maybe needs some fresh blood (beer).

There was an audible gasp of amazement. Needless to say, I didn't stay long.Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558747878308766840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677885556404476308.post-553066763503271362017-03-10T06:51:12.792+00:002017-03-10T06:51:12.792+00:00What a amazing journey with full of fun it is.
