Yeah, but this is a grotty little pub at the back end of Coventry. To be fair, it might include a few Iceland sausage rolls as I saw them being delivered Saturday. And the drink prices are amongst some of the most expensive in the city.

In truth, as I told the landlord, I've never paid to go into a public house and I don't intend to start now.

I'll nip out early and then settle in with the good lady and a few bottles; hopefully something interesting will turn up on the TV.

Yeegs, £5 seems a bargain rebbonk! My local is charging a whopping £75 for food and drink for NYE (drink being anything that doesn't include bottles off 'the top shelf!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Will probably do much the same as Lex and add also add some posts to WoL. Will leave the o/'...Knees up Mother Brown!!...o/' brigade to party the night away. Next day I will be hangover free - wahey!!

Local hostelry is charging £5/head So I guess we'll be stopping in with a few bottles.

Ok it's a bit early, but I thought I'd get the 1st one in! What has everyone got planned? I'm not up to much - staying in with a bottle of fizz to watch Jools Holland.
