The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

You should visit it is beautiful.

My voice would be a disappointment being an English man who escaped over the border eight years ago before they closed it 😂😂
Where from England are you originally from?

Wolves supporter and have been all over the south and midlands, but never further than the Lake District.

I am an American tho. More precisely, a Jerseyan (it’s not new anymore).

I have been around a little too. I was born on The Wirral and moved to Accrington as a child. I was at Liverpool for university after which my first job was in Preston. I moved to Oxford in 1982 and escaped in 2018 to settle here in SW Scotland. Best thing I ever did and where I intend to see my days out…just not too soon I hope.
 
I have heard it from just abt everyone of the female persuasion on this thread I think.

Let me be clear: i don’t have any time or patience for this kind of horseshit or people like that.

I would suggest putting him on ignore, reporting him and if that doesn’t work, we’ll run his ass right the fuck outta town. (Aka offa this thread)

I will say it right here and right now @lanceGibs , if you are stalking or harassing people here, you ain’t welcome.

This bar might be divey but I won’t put up with that bullshit.

I have added a fourth rule - the asshole rule:

No politics
No religion
No drama
No harassment/stalking

Now back to our regular programming…
Exactly
 
Anything in America is comparatively new, lol.
True!!

Our main farm building is from 1789 which is ancient by American standards. So much of what we’ve built here is “new in comparison.” I work for a German company and go there quite often. When I see something has been built in 500 bc or 563ad, it’s nothing short of amazing!
But it’s a common misconception that everything in America(s) is new. There have been people and civilizations here in the western hemisphere here for thousands of years!

I think they think people crossed over the Landbridge into the western hemisphere around 16,000 years ago.

It's all relative. My house is 1965 whereas the local castle was built 1400s after the earlier wooden one was abandoned. The cross in a local church is older being Anglo Saxon.

People walked our continents for thousands of years but left little or no material structures. Most of the older stuff here owes its origins to defence or religion or both. I just marvel, at the craftsmanship of those times when I visit churches and cathedrals in particular. Anyone familiar with my photographs will testify to this.

Even a 1789 building! I’m sure they were using string levels and using mules and horses and pulley’s to hoist the stone.

I have a laser level and the four walls of this building are dead-on fucking balls straight. Even thru the baby earthquake we had a few weeks ago.
 
I've never been to Europe, but of course one sees photographs, TV documentaries etc of old building, cathedrals etc, and it never ceases to amaze me, the structures they built with what must have been comparatively rudimentary equipment and implements. People tend to think we're getting smarter all the time, but I often think that they must have been smarter back then, considering what they did, with what they had.
 
Yep, my avatar isn't me, either. Well, it is Me, but it's not a piccie of me proper.


We still have few folks at work. We did have the monthly safety inspection. I got to walk with her. She's all kinds of charmed now, but we're still getting a write-up. Good thing is, she's a contractor to help us not get raped by OSH.


Can't decide on supper, but I am getting hungry.


Someone snuck over to the PB earlier today. :ROFLMAO: :nana:
