Couple Of The Regulars

The kind of stimulating conversationalists
that can be found in most local pubs.

Pub Blokes

Well I suppose as this is the first posting, it might be an idea to point out where this blog is coming from. If you're a bloke down the pub (and we are not talking early twenties Saturday night bottled lager drinker here), then you may have some inkling as to what it's all about.
Pub Bloke is the unheard voice of reason. The silent majority. The man who really does have an opinion on just about everything.
You see, it's not all about football, booze and large chests. I've spent many an hour or three down the pub arguing politics, the Vatican, Madonna, Vauxhall Cavaliers, the local sewage works, Fox FM (our local radio station), Posh Spice's new skirt and why there isn't as much meat anymore in a steak and kidney pie. And yes, a bit of football as well (it was very difficult NOT to have an opinion on Sven, even if you couldn't stand football!). But what is even more scary for you ladies is that we have pretty strong opinions on all that girlie stuff. So be warned. This isnt just for men to get irritated about!
Personally, I get to read loads of my partners Women's magazines, and boy do I have an opinion on those. Trouble is, it was in one of those said magazines that I first read about blogs and came up with the idea for this one - but unfortunately it didn't give too many clues as to how to create one. So whether this ever going to be actually read by anyone or is destined to disappear up through that gaping chasm that is the hole in the ozone layer (we'll talk about that at a later date), who knows. But it fills the odd half hour and I'm sure pretty damn soon you will be hearing all about The Ordinary Bloke Down The Pub's valued opinion on women school run drivers if nothing else. Because once the kids are back at school, the gloves will be off. Talk soon...
