I feel quite upset by this news captain,and I know I shouldn't with all that's going on in the World,but its another small part of Summer Wine that will be gone forever.
The last session at the pub was August 1st this year,and yesterday Barnsley Council approved its demolition to make way for new houses.
If I can get,I shall watch it being knocked down with a tear in my eye.
I know all this because I follow lots of news and sports reporters and newspapers on Twitter,I find its the quickest way to get news,and the Barnsley Chronicle reported it yesterday,isn't it a shame,like you say all those pubs gone,and its the same everywhere,
Wow have you seen Bellowhead,they're supposed to be one of the best live bands,never seen them but have all their albums,I saw and met Sam Sweeney recently,the fiddle player,he was doing a beautiful play in Sheffield called Made In The Great War,the audience were leaving in tears,I'm looking forward to all the shanties like New York Girls,10,000 miles,Yarmouth Town etc,but I like the slower ones too like Fakenham Fair and the stories like Bruton Town,
Thanks for the post,if I hear when the demolition is I'll post it,and try to get to take photos.
Pete.
