La Xampanyeria! http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g187497-d940427-Reviews-Can_Paixano_La_-Barcelona_Catalonia.html Tiny bar that sells Cava for cents, providing you order food too. Then you can come back during the day and buy it by the bottle and then get pissed in your hotel room. There's also an expat bar somewhere around there that'll serve you 50/50 vodka-cokes. But hosed if I can remember where it is. Will edit this tomorrow with more suggestions. Horse Clocks fucked around with this message at 18:05 on Jan 8, 2016 |

So the pub being closed by a caricature of capitalist scum managed to raise 5 grand in a day for the owner's family so that's something

He keeps posting about some pub in Norwich that is going to be turned into something that is not a pub. This issue is obviously of considerable importance to him.

Just like normal pubs but more dull and underwhelming. So basically wetherspoons with more expensive drinks, no food, and less people.

Also they're not proper pubs because everyone there has American accents.

I was once retweeted by a Twitter account called something like "scrote catcher" for complaining about high rail fares/terrible service. Some time later the account went inactive with no comment when a Tory minister was caught ducking the first class rail fare and being let off, of course. (Bet it was Bozza interning)
