Re Taggart's post about the New Inn whose pubsign pictures a gnu, I have this evening driven through the village of Newbald in the East Riding of Yorkshire where The Gnu. public house is directly opposite The Tiger.

Some competition there, I'll warrant!

And Snuffy, I believe you're right- the Moon Under Water Wetherspoon's "pub" on Deansgate in Manchester was previously a cinema. Nice place to drink, put I wouldn't call it a pub.
