I've done a deal with Saltaire Brewery. They're delivering me 9g casks of ale; I've sourced a supply of one gallon containers and I'm pouring beer into them and delivering to doorstep across Leeds and Bradford £25 a gallon. They pay me via PayPal and I deliver wearing a fresh pair of blue gloves every time. I'm absolutely fucking snowed under with orders. Brilliant to see how chuffed people are when they open the door and see a gallon of freshly poured IPA on their doorstep and it's keeping me well busy. 

Looks like your pub is actually closer to Bradford than Leeds on google maps. My son in law is a big Bradford City fan too. I should tell him to use your establishment on match days.

My wife has just set up a decanter of Paddy Whiskey for me on my bookshelf.

As Nicholas Cage's character said in "Leaving Last Vegas":  "I'm obviously with the right woman".

An interesting book collection.

 

I have a pretty fine football/cricket/sport/secular library.  (Even Usher made the cut).

(A lot of sacrificed school dinner money paid for books from the late 70s and 80s)

One level is quite Irish: history, politics, GAA, Joyce...

Vinyl collection at bottom.

There is a matching shelf to this one on the other side of the wall in our "ladies lounge" (wife's office/daughter's iPad area).

 

Sadly, the below is a compromised "rented family home" version... I had a cracking, genuine "man cave" in our last house - a floor-to-ceiling wall of shelves across the entire side of a large room (Smart TV as centrepiece), leading on to a little courtyard.  Hanging the washing out to Mozart/Eric Clapton was a joy.... @Nunavut Patrick knew it as "Skaro's Cavern Club".

Bought that Stephen F Kelly YNWA book when I was twelve. Saved for it for ages. Calcio is a fantastic read too.

Hey sanna, ho, sanna, sanna sanne, sanna hey, sanna, ho, sanna hey.......A 10 gallon barrel of prime, untouched Kronenberg arrived today, just as the Warsty was staring to lose its pzazz.

Apparently pubs will get a full refund on opened and unfinished barrels, from the breweries.

I'm doing a service for the community and reckon am a key worker. Devastating all the deaths,but this lock-down thing is the biz. I'll be the only one who comes out of this putting weight on
