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.

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
