I've been Willows several times, and liked it everytime. I've never had a problem. And they are very good with children also.

Re: Old Mother Redcap

Is there a history of hauntings in the area of the Redcap?

I ask because I once had a conversation with a man who had lived in one of the houses in the hill opposite. He claimed that the house was haunted and cursed, which he blamed on satanic practices, akin to the Hell Fire Club rituals, which had gone on in the past in a cave under that hill.

Re: Old Mother Redcap

Are you saying that they are microwaving thawed out food which has been prepared elsewhere?

Brewer's Fayre don't cook. They just warm up pre prepared food that they have delivered.

My uncle went to one once and asked for an omelette without mushrooms (it was on the menu as containing mushrooms).

The reply was that you'll have to have it with mushrooms, they come prepared with mushrooms in them, we don't make them here.

Good one.

I bet if he did get his toast, there would have been a nice big gob of spit on the side, to go with it.

Re: Old Mother Redcap

I seem to vaguely remember stories of the Redcap being haunted by a female ghost.
