Weeeeeeeh.

The undersigned do respectfully request the proprieters of The Castle to install some pole dancers.

A couple of three or so a night would be alright we reckon, perhaps Thursday to Saturday.

During the day just stick the telly on. Racing preferably.

Anyway no point poncing about, is it a yes or a no?


Respectfully yours

I drove past on friday night on my scooter - and was greeted by a charming little scallywag dressed in a very shiny Chelsea kit going 'gimme some pizza maaaaate' onto to be told by his similarly charming father to 'shut it you little fuka'


I wonder if the landlord could refurbish the punters too?

That's a terrible thing to happen to

someone. I hope you've recovered from this dreadful ordeal.


Re: sprucing up the punters, perhaps we could petition the powers that be for a more middle class variety of drinker? The current bunch are not exactly in keeping with the utopian image of ED that I was promised. Not exactly organic, if you catch my drift (although the irony is that they are, for the most part, locally sourced).

Locally sourced builders etc are pretty much restricted to one pub in ED now - being the Castle. Will be interesting to see if they achieve a more balanced mix of ED residents with the new facelift, I'm sure all of ED types can mix together?

I don't think builders are not necessarily all bad - the ones we have used are all public school educated... which is a bit surreal (conversations about existentialism etc).

i do think 8 year old kids outside a pup with a pissed father at 10.30 on a friday night is a bit off though.

Went in on Sat night for a couple of drinks. It wasn't that busy really. On the whole it was OK and much, much cheaper than the pubs along Lordshop Lane.


Still smells of paint. It reminded me of a Wetherspoons pub probably because it had just been done out and still needs to be worn in a bit.


There was one child running around in the bar at about 10pmish. I don't mind that though as I don't have to look after kids that are not my own!

      Lost Red Bag with clothes + makeup in!

      By Rachel E · Posted

      Hi, I accidentally drove off and left a red travel longchamp bag with various clothes / makeup in on Dovercourt Road earlier today... if anyone managed to pick it up please do let me know!  Nothing valuable is in it, just clothes and make-up that I'd love to get back if I can!

      Pride in place

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Looking at the areas which will be receiving funds, there seems to be a couple of pretty fundamental flaws with the scheme. In many of these areas, spend isn't migrating from high streets to online, there simply isn't any disposable income to migrate. No amount of tarting a place up is going to change the fact that these places are the poorest and most deprived in country - people simply have nothing to spend. Secondly, a lot of these areas no longer have an extant retail infrastructure to improve upon - it went donkey's years ago, along with the pubs. My childhood high street is getting a grant. Maybe they'll liven up Market Street by celebrating our notable locals - they could commission a Ricky Hatton mural, a statue of The Moors Murderers or a 'Walk of Shame' pavement for Harold Shipman's victims (it's quite a long street). But, whatever it is, I doubt it's going to show a decent return when the only businesses still trading are 'Bargain Booze' outlets, Bangladeshi takeaways, bookies and barbers.
