Now this is a good idea *BOB*. What songs could we request from him and his combo?

Queen's 'Liar' is obvious. Eagles 'Lying Eyes' (the punishment would be in having to perform it as much as anything),

Boz Scaggs 'Lido Shuffle' (pronounced the UK way). At the end of the performance present him with a lyre.

For an encore suggest Mott The Hoople's 'All The Way To Memphis'. I know it's not a song about lies but I don't half like it.

I imagine he'd start his set with Shaggy's seminal It wasn't Me, followed by Trust Me by Elton John and if the outcry persists, Shaddap You Face by Joe Dolce.


Strictly speaking, Anthony wasn't lying though. He did 'go to the Plough' and there was indeed a band called The Nites playing there. Perhaps he has short term memory loss and can remember going to the pub but not why he was going or what he did there. Like in 'Memento' - only in The Plough and with less killing?


I bet if you roll his sleeve up there'll be a tattoo there saying "go to Plough - play aaaaaawesome set"

I have had some pretty bad food in there (a pie on a Sunday lunch time brings back particularly bad memories) but I've also had some good food too. Last 2 times I've been have both been solid


It's an M&B pub so the food is centrally sourced and controlled so I'm never going to get a steak (for example) to compare with Franklins but it can be fine

Good spot JL, I'd like to hear The Nites cover it.


YOU'RREE IN SAASPPIISHIIAAUUN YU'RE A LIIIAAR


I'd go as far as The Plough for that.

I'm sorry about the misunderstanding Dez.

In my defence I was a little confused at the time but I'm much better now.

If it makes you feel any better I'm prepared to let bygones be bygones about the assault on my imaginary brother.

Faults on both sides, six of one half a dozen of the other and all that.


Both the pub and I have improved immeasurably since.

    • a (clean) nappy/pamper, it was like it had snowed in the garden.  The absorbent stuff inside spread everywhere.  Can I have my gardening gloves back please.
    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
