    I heard from one of the barmen that the living accommodation upstairs was going to be advertised on AirBnB

    Yep I think that’s the case but also a Paddy Power going into the unit beside them. Ffs

    I don't want to be all prudish and nanny statish but is it not about time that there were regulations about bookies being co-located beside pubs?

    Bookies are not good for society.

    They are deleterious to society.

    I am seriously considering a campaign to smash the book making industry.

    Popped in the other night to meet the nephew and his pals. They were all playing bingo and having a great time. It was obvious that people were going to the toilets and coming out sniffing, but that's the way it is in all pubs these days.

    There has been a doorman standing outside the gents toilets the last two times I've been down.

    Could be a few different reasons for that though I suppose!

    Could be from the building works they’re doing next door and above the pub.

    There’s a Paddy Power gone in next door here now. Bit disappointing, bound to attract a load of moochers into Campions IMO.

    I got the burger in the Balgriffin Inn a few weeks back. Great grub "for a pub". Bonus with PP next door now. When normality resumes this boozer will do really well.
