Ah, our fridges are naff and you can only just squeeze a tall bottle in. Besides, we couldn't be arsed to reach to the back; we just take their £2.50 and give them a warm one.

if it were me i would say i want a cold one, take this back. i would only do that at places where i dont eat just drink> :cool:

And if I were me, and I'm pretty sure I am, you would get one. Most are just too leathered so they can't tell anyway.

You'd get a slap if you said that to anyone round here.

And glasses are often warm too :mad:

Tracking a few bottles of this down, a takeaway and a book sounds like a plan for tonight. If I drink it out of a wine glass I'll maintain the ladylike image I project so well

Had 6 boxes in tonight (though thats meant to be our whole weekends supply!) so theres definately been an improvement in the stock situation.

Looking at the prices tonight and magners is actually the most expensive cider we sell (equivalent of £3.51 per litre for the pint bottles) :eek:

so the makers must be making a fortune out of it at the minute!

Costco Gateshead/Tyne and Wear has packs as well as single bottles in today. Pondered buying some but got a crate of sol instead.

Rotty · 8 Jul 2006 at 00:16

Right

here is the result of my research

of the 5 pubs that I knew to sell it 6 now do ( one 4 times

)

one had warm Magner's and were out of ice :mad:

the others had exactly what was ordered and received the RCFSM ( Rotty's commendation for serving Magners )

and the only demerit award goes to "my missus" for not having a bottle in for when I got home" :eek:

But Magners is rancid anyway! Get some proper cider in yer.

I was that disgusted that I didn't question them further , a pub with no ice :eek:

William · 8 Jul 2006 at 11:38
