I spread the word at the Monk's session yesterday so am hoping for a good turnout on our first night at Nellie's.

Good luck on the move, chaps. It's about time we had some more music in this splendid establishment!

Our first week (Tuesday 7th) wasn't great due to too small a room, a lot of smoke and lot of background noise. However, yesterday we used the upstairs (folk club) room and had a great session.

So, upstairs at Nellies for the forseeable future - the Sun remains closed anyway.

We have now had two weeks in the upstairs room of Nellies and that seems to be working out fine. It will be downstairs next Tuesday (28th), as the upstairs room has a permanent booking for the last Tuesday of the month, and then back upstairs.

The Sun remains closed

What's happening in Beverley Sun closed, Chris and helen going ? Is it something in the water ?

Don't think its the water It might have something to do with the chronic price of beer

The explanation that you are looking for is "pubcos". Exhorbitant rents, tied beer puchasing at huge markups etc. For example - firkin of ale from wholesaler £81, same firkin through Enterprise Inns £123. Ian, the ex landlord of the Sun, had an offer of Barnsley Bitter direct from the brewery at £45 but he is tied to buying through Enterprise or he loses his pub for breaking the contract.

The breweries lose out, the licensees lose out, the customers lose out and the pubco takes a huge profit in the middle for doing nothing.

Oh, and the ad that keeps appearing in the local Hull paper for Tuesdays in the Sun is nothing to do with us. Steve, the landlord before last, once sent in details of the acoustic workshop and the paper keep running it when there isn't much news about.
