A bottle of beer over draught, an appletizer and a lime and soda? It’s that time of the year again when amateurs are clogging up the bars for the pros!

Yawn. How many pubs and bars could survive year round without the huge increase in takings they get during Christmas? Then there wouldn't be anywhere for pub bores to sit the rest of the year and put off other people from going in :-).

We survive on hot air and bollocks. Nov-Feb are the slowest months of the year.

Manchester has an 'app' for half price bar tabs/meal vouchers, which comes in very handy. £25 bar tab will just about get you two cocktails and a pint. It's OK when you've paid £12.50 for it, not £25. Managed a few good nights out on the cheap at some really nice bars.

My wife has also got onto the email circulars where you get invites to new bars or restaurants - that's been good, ranging from a number of free drinks to free meals and drinks.

FYI

I didn't imagine it. I did drink it though.

£11.60 for a bottle of magners and a pint of goose Island at the local de vere hotel was a bit of a shock

A good ale from an independent brewery in my regular haunt in Corsham is £4.20. They also do a loyalty card - couple of weeks ago, after not checking the stamps, my mate and I had an evenings free beer, that’s two pints each. Nice evening, that, I think we had Hobgoblin that evening. Last weekend it was a mixture of Hobgoblin and Pure Ubu.
I keep hoping they’ll get Dark Side Of The Moose back in...

On the rare occasions I go to a pub, a double G&T costs about £10 when I can buy a whole bottle for £20!

I do wonder how they stay in business. Although to be fair my local was knocked down and converted into a row of terraced houses, so I suppose that answers my question...

Local real ale bar near us charges £3.20 for most beers, some maybe a bit more. None over £5, even the 7% and over.
