Oyster Brewery

[SwallowTail]

yes, the sky is bright over the western hills and the wind whistles over the Battenberg Cake, I mean Gate....
mine's a G & T btw

[Dogbreath]

Put your handbags down ladies... I know the men wear the skirts in Scotland, but this bitching is ridiculous!

[moonraker]

i would just like to wish the brewery all the best this year
and as you all know most of the island now drink there
just the part timers in the t nt so much for loyalty
never mind folks see ya in brewery
IN OUR LOCAL

[Nightstar]

What you mean most of the island drink in the "woolpak" Have you been in there latley it not that busy I would think the T&T is about the same they've had a few things on over the New Year LIVE MUSIC for one and if it wasn't for the darts on a friday night it would be just a dead, i don't think there's much between them - except one shouts louder than the other

[Seventhseil]

Ah the woolpack.....home to a whole host of characters. I hear they plan to start donkey fighting nights along with other traditional Yorkshire entertainments, like grease up the pig and torture the onion, all these of course are far cheaper than hiring a band. Don't forget the highlight of the year, Bernard Manning Idol in which white settlers explain why they moved here...

[dubhsgeir]

Brilliant your not Frankie Boyle by any chance.

[Seventhseil]

No.....obviously cos' Im a ladee

[DosCerveza]

It still stinks!

Going back to the beginning of this thread for a moment - lots of idle chat and yet it would appear that this little pub was never available for sale. It's now quite obvious who the tittle-tattlers are!!

It was advertised at some point last year - found the web site, maybe they might still take an offer if the price is right who knows they dont give much away these yorkies

[moonraker]

the wooly as it is known is not on the market anymore
as the poor wee yorkie is making far too much money
so who could blame him lets face it where is his competition
at least he tries to keep the real locals happy
i dont see the die hards holding up the other establishment ..

PS.. my holiday was fantastic thanks all you tax payers

[Lavendon connection]

Is it true that the brewery has been sold? Will it be made into flats? will it remain a smelly old dive with crap beer or will we end up with something that is of use to the community? ....and with owners who would like to be involved in the community?

I have visited the Oyster Brewery twice recently and on both occasions I received a warm welcome, enjoyed a cozy atmosphere, some Oyster Brewery beer and ate some good food. I am wondering if you were in the wrong pub. Anyway Pubs seem to be few and far between in this area so you should not knock it.

So be a good boy and don't be so rude.

If I paid for your holiday, that makes you a parasite.

The T&T seems to be doing just fine whenever I am in there Moonraker - who told you otherwise? Plenty of yachties starting to wander over the hill from Puilladobhrain, plus the usual wheelborn tourists.

Just as well really, as the OB is too small to get everyone in

Thanks PP.

So as not to be accused of being biased I celebrate them all, George, Andrew, David & Patrick. Anything for an excuse to raise a glass and today was as good as any.

Weather fabulous - spent it mostly in the garden drinking beer looking out to sea. Who would want to be anywhere else?
