Re: just a few questions...
Got to admit that I haven't been out round town for about 3 months. My main gripes are the over inflated prices, watered down beer and the fact that the town is full of chavs. Maybe I'm getting old I have always had a good time at Accy web meet ups in smaller local pubs. I quite honestly prefer to have a meal out, a glass of wine (or 3) or a good film, concert or theatre performance.

Re: just a few questions...
I've never been on a night out in Accy for about 15 years!! (OK my fault I suppose)
I'd rather go to the Rose & Crown, Stag, Heys Inn, Plough or the like. Better ale, better company, but still lots of noise!!
Prices are all over-inflated, but its the same wherever you go. All prices in the UK are over the top, it's about 20-30% cheaper for everything in Germany (except Hollands' pies and treacle toffee).

Re: just a few questions...
The bar above Mac Ds has been advertised in Observer, Telegraph, we did a leaflet drop and had a few shout out's on 2BR radio. Anyone welcome , call in one Sunday, plenty going on, good atmosphere and most importantly - cheap drinks.

Re: just a few questions...
It's not above McD - It's above Si (or as we keep calling it "Old McDonalds" which elicits the response "eee, aye? Oh!")
