  • I ran a tour de sam smiths around cheshire just before christmas. It was great, if a bit blinkered seeminly. Every pub was receptive and friendly (one is a favourite with a load of local cyclists) until we got to the last, where the punters were, to put it frankly, cunts.
    I really liked the mobile phone policy but admittedly hadn't thought of it in a disability context - you'd hope staff would be pragmatic in that kind of situation.

    Also the extra stout is great.

  • Yeah, the Vine is always good.

    They can’t, as they face getting fired if they got caught giving people leeway.

    Also it doesn’t necessary just disabled people, but what if you’re anxiously waiting for a call/text/email from the hospital/work/etc. What if you don’t want to be bothered by a creep by looking busy at your phone? Etc.

    It’s easy for us to be positive about a mobile ban from a position of privilege.

  • cheshire ... pub ... frankly, cunts.

    haha name and shame!

  • We're musing doing a similar idea in Leeds, similar to our The Hell of the North Bar (visiting all the North Bars), called The Samstel Gold Race.
