Saw the 99p in the Pallasades on one of my visits up north lol. Think the SIL is very inconsiderate there Paul but do hope you and the family have a lovely day and hope to make it to Brum in Sept be good to see you again as last time was in Oxford where you and the family so kindly took our wee poorly Di home 🙂
 
Most of Weatherspoons are excellent ! Buildings are in good nick & normaly old banks etc. There is a one in Hexham that was a cinema/theatre. Have a GOOD TIME 😉

Wetherspoon's are a very good consistent chain of pubs - you always know what you are getting. Yes, neither their beer or their food will set the world alight.

Which is quite useful if you are travelling with someone who has allergies or similar. Some of the more upmarket pub/restaurants will liberally apply spices and other condiments to the food which has caused a few problems for us in the past.
 
Dont worry Stephen has the knack of making snide comments that often offend and then never comes back to the thread lol.

Its quite amusing I nearly ended up working in the Shakesphere Head(other London pub we have used) in the kitchen applied for job there etc, heaven knows what Stephen would of thought of me then
