    I think we should take a break. We're getting to the business end and many may not be online much... just my opinion though.

    Good to hear we taking a break as will only be on here and there over the long weekend and would hate to miss anything.

    Hope all having a nice Good Friday so far.

    Was just having a ‘discussion’ with the OH on weather pubs open on Good Friday. I reckon they don’t and she is sure they do/did in recent years.

    You are both right, the Pubs were closed on Good Friday until 2018. In 2018 they lifted the ban to open the pubs.


    The pubs have been closed for Good Friday 2020 & 2021 due to COVID though. :(

    first to 5 suits me, may be less regulars around so any more may prove to take longer.
