Pat, were you the chap who wrote '1001 Uses for A Coat Hanger?
I've been up in London a lot recently for the new job. It's tough work but very enjoyable. Did you know they do a strawberry flavoured KY jelly now?
I did make it down to the Wall Tavern for the England v Italy game and like every else in the pub was gutted.
Every time our brave boys in blue poured forward I thought we would score, and when it went to penalties I couldn't take anymore and left early. I wasn't surprised to find out later that we lost.
Lucky Italians, eh?
Oh, and I can still smell cheese!

One more thing Pat,
CAN YOU SMELL CHEESE?
|
First things first Pat, can I say that I just love your work. Are you still listening to Genesis?
Anyhow, I start work at Artie Fuffkin's Porno Emporium and Film Studios next week. My duties will include fluffing, applying make-up where required and a bit of sweeping up too.
For reference, I am represented by Oogle, Oogle, Bugle and Dougal solicitors. Those guys know a good thing when it comes along and smacks them on the backside with a wet fish.
Look forward to seeing you in Soho.

I work near Soho ... maybe we could meet up for a drink and a "chat" about your new role?
|
Firstly can I say a big thanks to all the regulars at the Wall Tavern who made me so welcome last night. I hardly had to put my hand in my pocket.
But I'm afraid I won't be in as often as I'd like to be as I've just secured a new job working in the sex industry. It's based in Soho and means I'll be in London most of the week.
So we will have to make the most of our weekends together.
See you lot later. I love ya'all

Just hours to the big kick-off. Dare I venture forth and watch the England v Ukraine game in the Wall Tavern?
I'll see you all there!

I've been a very naughty boy......again.
I have to hold my hands up and come clean, I was in the Wall Tavern last night where I mingled with the great unwashed and watch the Poland v Russia game (I was rooting for Poland, as I'm sure was every upstanding Englishman).
And I thought I was barred!! Cor blimey guvnor, what a right royal fiasco this is getting to be.
For the record, I drank eight pints of Von Zeppelin lager (12.4% and brewed on an industrial estate just outside Bedford). It were about as authentically German as Carlesberg is Danish and Foster's is Australian. Ie. NOT AT ALL.
To eat I stuck to the snack menu, opting for the haunch of venison in a Malibu jus served on a bed of beaked beans.
And yes, the Jimmy Saville look-a-like was behind the ramp but I couldn't tell whether it were a man or a woman.
I reckon a bit of both.
|
Now then, now then...guys and gals....jewellery jewellery...rattle, rattle...hows about that then?
|
That's not a great advertisement for the Wall Tavern, is it tradervic?
By the way, were you the Jimmy Saville lookalike at the bar?
|
We knew you'd be in Lad. Our slops were ready fo you, as well some old 'grub' which our sow Sophie refused at Christmas (2010). Glad you enjoyed it and sorry for short-changing you again....

I've been a very naughty boy.
Despite being 'barred' from the Wall Tavern I popped in yesterday.
I had four pints of Bobby Davro Old Donkey IPA and also took the opportunity to have a bite to eat. My starter of deep fried genetalia was cooked to perfection (I'm not sure from which of God's creatures the gentalia in question came from but it was plump and wholesome).
For my main course I had the steamed corned beef meatball with a Vimto jus.
I'll definitely be returning to the Wall Tavern, especially as one of the people there looks a bit like Jimmy Saville.
|
I've been warned by several people via the personal message route to stay away from the Wall Tavern.
While it will obviously be very difficult to resist visiting this particular hostelry I think I might just manage it.
One of the mugs who sent me the pms, incidentally, claims NOT to be Jimmy Saville.
|
Lad......pleese learn to spell and sober up. This is the finest pub in town, by a mile. Just because you're barred and unhygienic is no reason to slag the pub off...
|
I got a load of grief in a personal message from someone calle Tradervic after my last post.
Can someone else please go and have a look at the new Wall Tavern sign and give us their opinion please?
|
Parked close to this pub the other day as I had to take the mother in law to the vet around the corner.
The new pub sign is possibly one of the worst I've ever seen. I urge you to check it out. Truly naff.
|
It was National Bobby Davro day, so I decided to pay this place a visit with the aim of starting some kind of fight.
After necking four pints of Bet Turpin Hotpot Ale, and two large gins, I sauntered up to a big bloke in a high-vis jacket at the bar, kissed him on the cheek and said: HELLO SAILOR.
I had no idea this pub was a good half hour drive to the nearest A&E department.
|
I would imagine that the poor Lad is gutted.
|
Ladself says he is not barred from any Whitstable pub. You are now! From here.
The Wall Management.
|
S**T OLE!
|
Very cheap drink and some great local personalities out for a good time, great for a cheap night out
|
It's not that good at all but no animals in here thank God!

Spotted this place during a long weekend in Whitstable and it looked very appealing from the outside. An old timber framed building that's a little off the beaten track, I was expecting great things when I walked in.
Alas, the interior is a huge let down. Whoever decided to modernise this place has made a grave error (in my humble opinion). I can only describe it as looking like the bar area in a Travelodge hotel. For such an old building it's all just wrong - Garish carpets, plasma TV's everywhere, modern fixtures....you get the idea. None of this is helped by a slightly tense atmosphere - locals shouting across the pub at each other, trying to be heard over the blaring TV's.
I can't even tell you what the beer is like as I never got that far - when my wife noticed that the only wine on offer was out of a tap at the bar (always a bad sign) that was the final straw, we made our excuses and left.
With so many decent pubs in the area there's little for me to recommend about this place I'm afraid.

If I wanted to take my children to watch a football match, I�d go to a football pitch. In Whitstable, the pikeys take their children to this place. And for those who wonder what pubs smelled like before the smoking ban, you have to walk through the smoking shelter filled with fragrant pikeys to get into the place.
With four hand pumps in the place, only one was working. And that had �London Pride� which you can get absolutely anywhere. In my years I�ve been in some pretty grim pubs, but this must rate amongst the grimmest.

Visited "The Wall Tavern" quite a few times in July/August 07. This pub has lost it for me Im afraid.
Non smoking has resulted in "a shack" being errected right outside the pub frontage. Im not against smoking or not in pubs BUT for Gods sake "The Wall" has a big garden, so why on earth spoil the Pubs frontage (a nice building in Middle Wall) with the errection of a "shabby shack" ?
Having said that Fullers has been up to scratch.
Please have a think about the "Shack" it doesnt do the Pub justice.
|
Visited 1400hrs 27 March. A spacious, clean pub off the High Street with a warm welcome, friendly locals and a good range of beers. Fullers London Pride very acceptable.
Will visit again soon...
