Many thanks for that valuable advice sturtterdog, which I will heed carefully, although I understand there's little danger for the likes of me as the Metro Senior Permit promising free rides anywhere in the Country is not accepted on that particular route - oooops, sorry Vicar, didn't see you there !!

Doesn't look good given it's recent history.I met friends in the Scabby Taps on Saturday lunchtime and the POW was to be our next port of call, but as it was closed we went to The Hop on Granary Wharf instead (it's well worth a visit) The Prince of wales was open when I went past today.

I noticed the West Riding (between the Metro HQ and a lap dancing club on Wellington St) has recently been taken over by Leeds Brewery and is no longer called Bar Work.
