    Re: Have you got any redeeming features?

    I've been wondering the same thing for a while, Jay. Apart from a passing interest in BFC I can't for the life of me think of any myself.

    if you wanna meet friends, have a chat, meet someone, have a non alcholic drink etc........then go to one of the many brewster type pubs and sit in the bar area..... and if you are supping pop....you can drive.

    simples really

    it sounds good over in canada.....loads of sports bars and mass produced gassy lager..... can you get jss as well?..... if so it sounds like heaven.

    hope this helps

    We used to go in there, recall one time all 3 of us took 1 drink of our pint, put it on the bar, said "that's awful" and walked out! It was probably JSS!

    Last time I was in the UK I noticed a load had gone in Thurnscoe and Goldthorpe; most already had houses on them...

    I remember going in the Drum (Station) in Thurnscoe as a kid before football to get changed.
