Top stuff.

we've got one of them mate...all those things. Including proper punch-ups almost every night of the week... Bah! wetherspoons my ar5e!!

This one's really quiet mate. They have a regular clientel, and it's in the middle of some farmers' fields, just on the outskirts of town. Every week they get these folk singers in and have a sing-song.

That's the day I don't go.

dont tell me - yer wellies were in the wash that night! (Btw - "Clientele") Gerrit in me bin :nod

i dunno what the yates pubs are like up your way, but down here they are just for scum. It is a dirty rancid pub full of pikeys and chavs who pay £2 a game of pool and double that for a drink.

There are a fair few 'locals' round my way though, and a lot of the dreaded theme pubs. i stick to the trinity, my local, a class pub, 2 floors, live music, nice beer.

In Cities pubs are very franchised..makes me a bit ill but i'll still drink their beer!

As for pubs having character Belfast has some good uns...but for originallity and the old feel,the biscuit most definately go to DONEGAL...............its a remote part over here..you drive for a mile or 2 and go into a wee pub and every man is called Paddy,Seamus or Sean...All drinking Guiness sitting by a fire and eating Stew.....When you get back into the real world you think that you have been in a timewarp!
It tastes and smells like a different world...And also in Donegal the barman is always the drunkest man in the pub..never any fights!

Should go there!!

'World's most remote' pub up for sale

One of the world's most remote pubs has gone up for sale - and is expected to fetch up to £4 million.

For more than 100 years the Birdsville Hotel -- the so-called dead heart of Australia's outback -- has been a refuge and drinking spot on the fringe of the forbidding Simpson Desert.

At the northern end of the notorious Birdsville Track, which stretches 517 km (321 miles) across the Strzelecki and Sturt's Stony Deserts, the pub's whitewashed stone verandahs are a magnet for adventure tourists from Australia and the world.

"It's a great business. Sometimes I almost tear my hair out thinking all roads lead to Birdsville, and on any given night there can be 300-400 people in the hotel," owner Jo Fort told Reuters.

A former nurse, Fort met her builder husband at the hotel, where she arrived 27-years ago on her own outback tour of Australia. The 1880's-vintage pub is a bolthole from temperatures topping 45 Celsius (113 Fahrenheit).

To reach the hotel most people travel by four-wheel-drive, carrying their own fresh water, supplies, fuel, and spare parts to guard against emergency in a desert area larger than France at 584,000 sq km (225,500 sq miles).

But some patrons fly in for a night's drinking, particularly during September when the town's spring races are held and the pub's staff rises like the temperature from six to 60.

No price has been set but Fort said, "There's a few million dollars in bricks and mortar here, and that's not counting the blood, sweat and tears."
