Chavs.
Chavs, Scallies, call them what you want, there is no getting away from them on a night out in Manchester. It seems everytime I find a nice enough place to go out, it starts to get invaded by bunches of tracksuit wearing yobs that have drunk far too much and are busy trying to intimidate [...]

Bluu Bar
One of my favorite bars in Manchester is Bluu Bar. It’s apparently situated in an old fish market in the northern quarter of manchetser. It’s quite a high class bar with a decent atmosphere. Its a pretty nice place to start the evening, but I’d make sure you stay only for a couple of drinks [...]

Save the Planet.
There’s a great little picture of a pub sign floating around the internet at the moment. It really captures the landlords sense of humor. It’s a light hearted look at the planets current state, but I guess it shows an important message. While most pub landlords are worying how to stay open without going inot [...]

Anti Date Rape Beer Mats
Here’s one for you: Date rape drugs such as ketamine, GBH and rohipnol are easily (and some say routinly) slipped into people’s drinks without the drinker knowing it leaving them very vulnerable to varrious types of assault.. So how do you get around such a problem in a busy bar where people are jammed in [...]

Six Pubs Close Per Week
I read an article a while back that stated that due to the recesion 6 pubs are shutting down and going into administration every week. Although the cause of this is said to be the recesion, i believe its more due to a change in the way we brits are consuming alcohol. Large Supermarkets such [...]
