  • It’s just a joke, like they do on Top Gear.

    There’s no need for the nasty attitude.

    I don’t really see how your response really lines up with what I even said anyway. I made a single line silly comment about Jeremy Clarkson finally realising climate change exists, and from this you appear to have got:

    • I am offending all people who have ever been wrong once?
    • I have somehow offended farmers?
    • I am dismissing everything Clarkson did/does or said/says?
    • I don’t think people are allowed to change their opinion on a subject?
    • I somewhere called Jeremy Clarkson a cunt?
    • I am a cunt? (I do appreciate the clarification of “on this occasion” though, thank you)

    I’m sorry if I’ve somehow offended you here, but I’m struggling to make sense of it, to be honest.




  • Historically, “bars” which had almost no seating or tables, and nowhere to even put your drink down for a second, meant that people kept their drink in hand all the time, which meant they’d finish a pint in 15 minutes instead of 30 minutes - so after 2 hours, 8 pints in, the bar had made a tidy profit, and the fully shitfaced customer would stagger down to the kebab shop, start a fight and then throw up on their own shoes.

    By comparison, a pub, with chairs and tables, people would drink half as much in the same time period, and perhaps be less likely to engage in the kebab shop fight/vomit situation.

    I think that’s what they’re getting at - which I can sort of see, but making it all “table service only” sounds silly though. Just give them some little shelves round the walls and columns to put their drinks down on.
