Pissed bloke built a pub… in his shed
The pub has no name - how about “the boring cunt”
You have to admit, it was quite amusing watching him get progressively pissed whilst telling us about his teak varnish plywood panelling… in a strangely compelling way of course
He does come across like the bloke everybody in the pub tries to avoid, doesn’t he. That one-man boozer of his might be the best investment he’s ever made.
It’s been a weirdly nostalgic weekend. Our eleven year old niece is round staying, which is how old @Goatboy’s Kid Goat was when this place first started, so that milestone has really hit home. The cynicism is creeping in, but full teenage bastard mode is a while away. She is generally positive about most things.
I’ve dragged my little retro gaming setup into the front room as a consequence, and to be honest, that feels more nostalgic than anything else We’ve got flat screens all over the house, no-one is subsisting o a little black and white 14 inch, but even so, feels like one of the rare times I’ve got to use “the big telly”.
Gamers will know what I mean.
Oh the joys of parents going away on holiday and 5 minutes after they’ve gone plugging in the amiga to the ‘big telly’

To give some context I was a 14 year old scrawny, spotty little virgin and playing computer games on the big telly was a big deal for me.
According to pap, he still does it.
When I wasa scrawny 14 year old the biggest colour TV we had was probably 20" maximum
Ours was 30’’ but that was from front to back.
That is a thing of beauty.
The three pubs I frequented back down south all names combined bar a few words make
Bent Neighbourly Philanderer.
I am or will be building a pub in my garden now…
The Bent Brief?
Bet the “big telly” was some weird make that you probably never saw before or since
I think ours was a Grundig
Ours was bought from John Lewis at top of town.
They had to send a man out once a week to degauss the screen because the colours were shot to shit and it was still under waranty make may have been Alba?
