Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns: March 2015
http://curmudgeoncolumns.blogspot.com/2015/03/march-2015.html
Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns. Ranting monthly about pubs and beer since May 1993. Goodbye to the 19th Hole. Nobody should delude themselves that cutting the drink-drive limit wouldn’t lead to wholesale pub closures. Variety Isn’t Everything. Drinkers may prefer continuity over constant change. THE LATEST version of Pete Brown’s Cask Report was published last autumn, and again it recorded a story of success in a declining market, with cask beer continuing to gain absolute volume, not just ma...

http://curmudgeoncolumns.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns. Ranting monthly about pubs and beer since May 1993. It seems wrong that established pubs can be converted into shops without planning permission. One day, you see work starting on it and think that maybe at last they’ll be giving it a thorough makeover and allowing it to realise its potential. But when the fencing comes down you are shocked to see a gleaming new Tesco Express inhabiting the old pub building. “How on earth did that happen? It has to be recognised, tho...
Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns: February 2015
http://curmudgeoncolumns.blogspot.com/2015/02/february-2015.html
Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns. Ranting monthly about pubs and beer since May 1993. The Cow Jumped Over the Moon. Pub design gimmicks never stand the test of time. However, in the past couple of years they seem to have adopted a more drastic and self-consciously designed approach, and with the scheme at the Farmer’s Arms in Poynton many would think they have taken a flight of fancy too far.

Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns: May 2015
http://curmudgeoncolumns.blogspot.com/2015/05/may-2015.html
Curmudgeon's "Opening Times" Columns. Ranting monthly about pubs and beer since May 1993. Lilacs out of the Dead Land. Beer duty cuts have driven a striking recovery in the pub trade, but it’s by no means universal. And our local family brewers have been spending large sums on revamping pubs such as the Baker’s Vaults, Platform 5 and the Griffin in Heald Green. There’s certainly a new sense of confidence in the air. Pubs are serving food on anything but plates, no matter how ludicrous. Column which appea...
