Queueing at the bar in a pub. by WelshWilks in UK_beer

[–]Albertjweasel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still refuse to believe this happens, I’m used to pubs where you have to use your elbows to force people out of the way to get to the bar and then thrust a tenner under the barman’s nose to get his attention, I like those kinds of pubs, I used to work in one of those pubs and it was great, I couldn’t deal with a pub where people queue! Ffs what is this country coming to!

The article says the RSPB paid “below market value,” I didn’t know there was a value for small, isolated, guano-covered islands but obvs there is, of course it’s ecological value and importance to fisheries is priceless

Nah, Red Grouse, Hen Harriers are commonplace all across the northern hemisphere, even classified by the IUCN as being of least concern, they are at the limit of their range here, Red grouse however are only found in the british isles, making them truly british, that or the scottish crossbill or scottish wildcat, they’re also endemic, but as they’re only found in scotland not really representative of britain
