    up for sale £285k.

    Don't think it can be profitable what with the cheap ale, Sky TV subscriptions and live Entertainment to pay for.

    Anyone got any info?

    Is the freehold up for sale or just the lease?

    No it's doing *****

    Should've called it Kwimcockers, that's where we went wrong! It's called Musika and we're selling it.

    We've got 16 now that we own and about 40-50 that we run for S&N, Punch, Enterprise Inns etc under management contracts.

    Keeping busy like .. you ok?

    sometimes plowing on straight ahead ain't a bad option. I'm sure you'll choose wisely anyway.

    You gotta do what you feel

    you'll only regret it if not. You might knacker it up, but you had the balls to do it anyway. Better than regrets imho.

    and remember - always spin CCW!

    Assuming that is a leasehold price, I wouldn't.

    Last Orders is far enough out of Wombwell centre to be off "the circuit".

    Weekend trade is a handful of Karaoke singers plus people from that end of Wombwell coming for first and/or last drinks on their way to/from the centre.  Weekday/daytome trade is reliant on a handful of regulars.  There's no space to extend it so kitchens are a non-starter (unless you use a dumbwaiter from upstairs) and its geographical location makes changing the character an unlikely success formula.

    Freehold, however, would be a different story as the building is a huge 3-storey place and the upstairs flat is gorgeous. If that's freehold, I'll have it to convert to flats!

    It's *****.
