For goodness sake, put another record on!
I had forgot all about this meet, and I passed Settle last Thursday and New Years eve on a brief trip to the Lakes.
Perhaps there is a salient point here in that the A65 by passes Settle completely nowadays along with othe by passes throughout the country and this must have had a dramatic impact on passing trade for all sorts of business.
I agree with ***** it is rtefreshing to hear of a pub receptive to motorhomers, and quite frankly if the cynics suggest the motivation is totally commercial then so what ? More a case of people using good business nouse in my book.
Some of you will remember I ran a pub briefly and it is certainly not an occupation for those scared of long hours. My outlet made its money at the weekend. Monday to Thursday were difficult and several event evenings were tried to encourage business in an effort to contribute towards overheads.
Therefore at peak times, it is understandable why propreitors become agitated....The same is true of campsite owners in August.
Concentrate and do the job right, and the money will take care of itself is a true adage I think, however it doesnt consider human nature.
In respects of CJs gripe re the gin, we too sold a house vodka which cost us less too than the leading brands...........depending on how it is sold I believe is down to ones individual ethics.
When asked for a double gin ....house on special offer or Gordons ? should be the question.......I cant speak for this landlord but I made more money on house spirits.
