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.

    • When I managed a large staff group, and workers were needed for Christmas day, there was always a queue of people wanting a shift, for many reasons.  Where is the problem-why is it shameful?
    • 🎄Are you flying solo for Xmas?   🎄Let’s be honest-it can be weird. But maybe it’s also a chance to just …chill.   🎄How are you planning to treat yourself and make the day feel good?   🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅All ideas welcome.    ✌️Drop yours below. 🎄🎄🎄
    • Until the licencing laws changed in the late eighties, pubs were only allowed to open Sunday hours on Christmas Day, so 12 'til 2, and the majority didn't open in the evening unless it was for a 'private party'. But that's another story. The landlord of my old local used to let everyone double or treble up at last orders so that you could avoid having to watch the Queen's Speech with your Nans at three o'clock. Dulwich Tandoori is open Christmas Day for those who don't fancy Gail's.  'Festive Flavours', apparently.
    • My nominations are the Goblin Band at the Goose, and the Errol Linton Trio  at the Dulwich Folk Club.  I'm not sure what other venues we have in the immediate area.  I rarely do the big (1000 plus) places any more.  Your nominations? And a special mention to Truthpaste, at least one member is local and their video was recorded around here.  But I caught them in North London.  And please see the link to the BBCs recording of the Copper Family at the Castle a few weeks ago~: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002ng53
