Prices in UK pubs must make punters sober up fast these days.

Why else would people be drinking crap like US buddweiser.

It's delivered to the door of your house these days, to slobs like Reg Dingle.

Enjoying an ice cold one on a sunny 25° day while watching the Polo.

BLD is in Australia. But don’t let that stop your rant.

I was suggesting it was a widespread phenomenon, you lumbering simpleton.

Do you progressively morph into Chitty with each martini? Makes sense I suppose…

The disdain in that post indicates first world = bad.

What’s a champagne socialist? 2nd world or 3rd?

what’s the woke place to be?

Yes, that’s exactly what happened. Very accurate.

Still waiting on the explanation for why stumpy buying a pair of copper mugs is so bad?

There's a pair o' mugs on here, that's for sure. And for once one isn't Lulu.

They couldn't "mug off" a mug, look that on urban dictionary you pair of mugs

Fwiw it's not a mug, it's a tankard

And another.

That's a ladies glass

Yeah, it was a touch small.

Looks like a good place for a cold beer, was it served warm on purpose?

Actually Joe, that is incorrect as I understand it. A Tankard has a lid and handle and can be made of many different materials. If it's open top with a handle it's called a mug.

The earliest tankards were made of wooden staves, similar to a barrel, and did not have lids. A 2000-year-old wooden tankard of approximately four-pint capacity has been unearthed in Wales.

Four-pint capacity! They were not fucking around!

I just wish I had some Cu mugs. But damn it’s a nice drink on a hot day.

Had some time to kill, so dropped by Jack's Bar or a swift one

That’s a nice spot. Great view to sink a couple.

When was the last time you actually visited a pub/ engaged in some offline socialising?

UK Pubs aren't nearly as expensive or as restrictive as you think...and although obviously not as cheap as drinking tinnies at home, a pint of beer in a pub here is around the same price you pay to sit inside, watching smog and second rate footy, drinking your second rate UK brewed and watered down Belgium beer.

And you spelled Budweiser wrong

Not UK brewed.

A beer is about £6 a pint, isn't it?

Stella Artois here costs £1.50 for 500 mil.

You're talking complete bollocks.

And weren't you saying a while back that the Amazon guys loved you, as you delightedly opened up a case of that dismal pish called Heineken?

You seem a bit confused - youre saying I'm both right and wrong on the prices.

You're well out of touch, fella.
Tomorrow at Wetherspoons Monday Club, you could buy nearly 3 pints of Shipyard IPA, 4.8abv for that and a lovely smooth pint it is too.

The rest of the week you could get 2 pints with your 6 buff and still have change for the bandit.

There are other pubs around here that rival Spoons on price too, although they do have red cloth on the pool table for a reason

As for the Heineken 'piss'...you'll find it's considerably stronger and far tastier than your can of Welsh brewed Stella thats fast losing its 'wifebeater' reputation nowadays
