    Maybe its because I'm young but I have never bought the stereotypical halftime pie at the football. I guess back in the days it was the working mans lunch on a Saturday but now I expect they cost about £5. I got a hotdog once at Fulham for about £6, but apart from that all I've ever bought was drink.

    Hibs is the most expensive food in Scotland imo. I always get either pizza, chips n drink at HT or pizza, pie n drink. Don't like bovril so it's normally somethin fizzy or hot chocolate haha!

    Fucking hell. Did he pour it from a few of the small glass bottles? I'd have told him to fuck off and gone to the shop for a bottle. Mind you I'm a right arse when it comes to pubs, I always send back a pint of Guinness if it isn't poured right. Way I see it, I wouldn't expect to be sold a packet of crisps that were crushed into tiny pieces so why should I get a shit pint when I'm paying so much for it. It winds me up more that I'm looking for a job while inept retards are somehow working behind bars all over the place.

    lol I noticed that if you send a pint back the next one is usually as bad because it's the same nob pouring it and they're in a huff. If I was by myself or just with the burd or something I'd probably just walk out but I'm usually with a group of mates when it happens, who are waiting to be served and prob won't wanna leave. Was in a Weatherspoons before and got poured a shocking pint that was about 1/4 head and when I sent it back she refused to serve me again, so I called the manager and he told her to cop herself on and pour me my drinks. Was only 18 at the time, must have thought I was a right little wanker but fuck em.

    Not a very PC thing to say, I know, but it's usually the Polish/eastern european staff who haven't a clue. I imagine stout isn't very popular over there. The women tend to get really rude about it when you ask them to do it again too. Most places in Ireland, the staff know a pint, and will repour it before they even put it on the counter, without you asking.

    Always had a pie and bovril when I was a kid, before the prices became totally unrealistic. Cannae whack a hot bovril in the winter, although it was hard to hold the fuckin thing it was roasting.
