    Neighbours waiting for me to take my 4x4 out so they can analyse the roads (I presume), but I'm working from home

      Yeah. Been there after refurbishment? I haven't been there in ages.

      The guest ales at The Rodley Barge are good at times though!

        I have, it's ok but not what it was, some sort of gastropub now - not cheap. Gina (ex Landlady) is now at the Fleece in Farsley, lively place now. Music fest Easter bank holiday always fun!

            I live walking distance from The Dog & Gun (plastic millionaires palace) and The Lamb (awful food and the gay owners chintz decor). The Bay Horse at Oxenhope is bit further but it is okay.

              Yes I have - once! The Mrs asked for a cup of tea in there to wild hilarity!

              Used to go in the New Inn on quiz nights - easy pickings till they, not barred me, but kind of said I wasn't allowed in the quiz. Not ballooning myself, it was easy peasy!

              The Village is pretentious, the Old Hall round the back was ok but to be honest not been out much lately.

                Home to rednecks of Leeds, I reckon. All the chavs from those council blocks behind the pub "meet up" at the New Inn or at the Bay horse over weekends for some mischief.

                The village wine bar near the butchers is home to Uppity chavs of Farsley. Every Friday night is a -> night!

                  Oxenhope is a pretty decent village. But anything close to Keighley is a tuliphole!

                    You should try here. There is even a road sign for The Idiot Hut!
