Clarky Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Had a fantastic pint here [attachment=166697:Warwickpub.jpg] Very friendly barmaid [attachment=166698:Bradford-Street-Anchor-Hannah.jpg] Quote
HowieBass Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Have they sorted out the problem with the dull 'E's? Quote
BetaFunk Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I hope you emailed the brewery to complain if you got a duff pint. Quote
HowieBass Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I once snapped a G string in there. I'll get me coat... Quote

4-string-thing Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Is that on Warwick Rd, Knightsbridge? If so, I once fitted the signs there! Quote

skankdelvar Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Nice twist there Clarky. Shame that [i]some[/i] subsequent posters have used it as a platform to extend their sly, unpleasant mockery of BC-er Thunderbird beyond the thread he posted elsewhere [edit: and which is now locked]. AFAIC, a small clique of members have been idly ganging up on someone when they could profitably be contemplating the meaning of the word 'community'. Edited July 14, 2014 by skankdelvar Quote
Subbeh Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 It does seem a bit much, the old thread wound up with a lot of piss taking but some how that wasn't enough? Quote

[/quote] Indeed and my point exactly. Thankfully someone's locked the old thread now. Quote
Clarky Posted July 14, 2014 Author Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) It certainly wasn't my intention to encourage further disharmony. I merely thought it might lighten the mood. Ho hum Edited July 14, 2014 by Clarky Quote

[/quote] Having read that thread to make sense of this I didn't see much mocking so much as someone who had maybe made a mistake but understandably didn't want to lose face publicly admitting it. The gracious thing would be for the others to let it drop. Even though he clearly felt he had a genuine grievance the sensible thing for him would have also been to drop it. The latter seems to have happened, so... Quote

[/quote] I suppose I was somewhat guilty of that. Sorry TBird. However, being a former Warwick devotee, I have great respect for the company and its ethics, and had good comms and help from them. So I was a bit irked by TBird's comments. Quote
waynepunkdude Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 The sign on that pub looks a bit wonky, poor craftsmanship there..... Quote

I think some people are just desperate to be part of the gang. Quote
