Bellyache today Baylis?

It looks like they were toying with televised football as far back as 2004 - Wetherspoon plugs in TV

Or using toy televisions?

NO its mehead, tab ass co.

Thanks skinny thats answered the question. tabasco may be so but as Harry said they get bodies in the door, you don't have to drink there just buy the shares :o))

I can't believe that tabasco didn't really rise to the bait from your southern beer 'dig' !!! I was anticipating a really good but pointless argument over that one!

Im just unpredictable Harryor so they tell me?or perhaps Im not.not really sure?who cares?

Ironically I've never had a drink (beer) in any of the 5 or 6 wetherspoons that I've been in. Although I can say that their big breakfast is good value.

Yeryou can eat it twice?

The share price is good today to 529p

Good move up today.

Plop!

True, but might be interesting to have a look back if and when they retrace to around that 400p mark.
