I hate changes too, can't accept them. I don't like it when so many of the lovely old-fashioned pubs here in Norfolk are turned into up-market foodie dining joints, with those silly menus.
Years ago, these pubs were used by farm labourers and men/women of the land, and they'd sing all the old traditional songs clutching their pints of locally-brewed bitter. I often used to attend when there was Morris dancing outside, and have a half of Adnam's ale.
My favourite about 30 years ago was the Earle Arms at Heydon. Now it's just a mass of dining tables and poncy wine lists. No atmosphere left. Makes you weep!
