And doesn't drink much these days, he's lost about 8 stone in the last 6 months! You probably wouldn't recognise him!
Shame to see the Rutland shut, and 7s to be fair, 2 places in a decent town centre location that should be able to make a go of it if they are run properly
And I agree with your point about pubs in town, there have been many changes to names etc in the 20 odd years I've been drinking round town, in fact The Rutland was one of the few Town centre pubs left that was pretty much the same as it was when I started drinking!
Good to hear he's got it together. As for the Rutland. I hope it reopens with same name and nothing the same inside it was not shabby more down to bad management. Sadly traditional pubs in the town centre seem to be disappearing and that's from someone that's only loved here 3.5 year! Was in the White swan often until it reopened with a different name and became some sort of Avant Garde jazz bar. No more bitters and imported German lagers. Don't even do Sunday lunch no more. Rutland could go same way
