Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:08:47 Where does Yeovil drink?
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:12:11 I would guess the Woodlands Edge is close by if he walks his dog at the tip...
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:19:34 Sonic, enlighten us on the fine watering holes of Bampton :D
I used to go out with a girl from Cartoon Town (Carterton) and of the 3 pubs there not one was decent. Allways full of inbreds from Brize.

Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Asher on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:34:51 It was!!! what a crap hole, to be fair I drink more in the southbrook cos thats who I play for on sundays and my mates go there means I drive tho so its only a shandy or two for me
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:36:14 Ah the southbrook. Ive been there once. aren't they all good at cycling down there?
Yes, the Harvester is possibly the worst pub in swindon. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Asher on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:37:27 eh im lost?!?!
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:39:18 Not as bad as this dump :wink:
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y153/Ralphy-Boy/merlinswindon.jpg Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:40:57 I think the Southbrook has a decent cycling team.
The landlord at the Merlin is leaving soon, so prepare for it to get shit. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:42:00 Food looks good at Merlin, anyone sampled it?
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Asher on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:45:57 the cheese burger and chips before a match is awful..fact
Ive never heard about cycling? heard the footy teams crap ha ha Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:48:07 The food when there isnt a match on is great. the house burger (burger, onion rings, bacon, bbq sauce, cheese) is superb.
Surely your silky skills could change the teams fortunes, Ash?? :wink: Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Asher on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:56:16 Mate, even with my sweet left and right feet the team is doomed, think weve only got 6 signed on!
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 08:59:50 I'll play left back...
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Asher on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:08:25 get in , come along mate we need players
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Bennett on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:13:52 Quote from: "Ralphy" Not as bad as this dump :wink: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y153/Ralphy-Boy/merlinswindon.jpg oh yes. the most chav infected pub ever...alas it's my local (not that i go there tho) Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: magicroundabout on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:21:16 this is who i play football for on a Sunday morning.
The Bell is the last pub on the Delph Run in Brierley Hill. http://www.starling101.btinternet.co.uk/canals/pubs/images/belldelph.jpg Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:23:51 my local is in the middle of this but i cant get a photo
http://www.emeraldquay.co.uk/mainpage.htm Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:34:08 Magic, that looks one depressing pub !
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: magicroundabout on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:42:22 Quote from: "Ralphy" Magic, that looks one depressing pub ! your not wrong either. It reminds me of the old pub which is now The Stones in Chippy (3 bells was it???) i only play football for them, i don't drink in there. Mind you the barmaid (Sally) is a quality bit of kit. probably why so many go back after the game for food. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: magicroundabout on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:47:49 this is only 5 mins from my house.
The Waterfront (only half of it though) http://www.birminghamuk.com/BrumFoto/waterfront/DSCF0013.jpg Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: STFC Village on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 09:54:26 http://www.theboundaryhouse.com/media/pictures/pnp2_03.jpg

Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 11:51:41 Stfcfan do you drink in the nine elms quite a lot then?
Got a feeling i may know u! Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 11:53:03 Mainly on weekends...i live directly behind the beer garden which is ace!!
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 11:53:56 I used to go in there loads but due to certain circumstances don't anymore. Do you play for the footy team?
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 11:56:38 Circumstances?? Share all :wink: No I haven't- they're quite good apparently.
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 11:59:11 Not bad ones just someone I don't particularly want to see as he is a bit of an idiot. I used to watch them play every weekend. They are good!!!
Pub is old fashioned though, too small. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:01:56 Traditional is the key...is much better than The Village and Brookhouse farm nearby.
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:05:02 I like the little pub on the corner on the Purton Road .. the Foresters - I go there for lunch sometimes when im at work :D
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:21:15 I do the odd quiz in the 9 Elms.....its weird out there....
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:22:57 We used to do the quizzes too now and again reg but its really small and stuffy in there.
I prefer Mackenzies to be honest, nice pub and the Merlin before match games or sunday afternoons! Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: fatbury on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:24:35 Oh absolutely !! MacKenzies on a Sat night for me :beers:
followed by Longs .. Walkabout or Apartment :beers: Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:26:27 That's what makes it weird, as it is an old fashioned country style small local, that has been swamped by new housing but anomalously retains its character.
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:31:31 Exactly. I think they have tried to modernise it but not really worked. Their idea of modernising seems to be high priced drinks and shots etc. when there isnt a market for that there.
Apparently as soon as these landlords leave it will be turned into another house as they do not want to keep it open for much longer. I think the land is owned by the council believe it or not! Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Spud on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:38:16 My local is The Crumpled Horn over Eldene, its a lovley friendly place, last time i was in there a Woman slashed a blokes face with a Stanley Knife. :|
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:38:45 Re STFCLady's post
Its a shame to hear that.....another nail in the coffin, for the traditional pub.....corner stone of our island race. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:41:39 I know some people I know have drank in there for so many years. Im not 100% sure what will happen yet but I remember them mentioning before that the land is so valuable for housing.
You're right though, they're disappearing by the minute. Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ralphy on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 12:46:09 Reg, post your local.

Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 15:34:14 Moloko is opposite a hotel yeah, nice place, good music especially on thursdays, just round the corner from the millenium stadiumand the station.

The pool tables still only 50p though (which is very rare) and they've got some old skool football shirts. I really hope they don't move/demolish it. Its so convinient for a beer before going out into town. Another fave of mine has to be the lava lounge (can't find a pick but check out lavalonge.co.uk) Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: DV on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 15:57:25 Cant find a pic of the messenger, but TV galor (about 33)and 4 pool tables
Title: Post A Picture Of Your Local Post by: Spud on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 16:17:42 Bloody hell!, they named a pub in Cardiff after a Big Brother cotestant. :shock:
