TK Maxx coming to Brixton

[editor]

I even started two threads about the Trinity. No mention of Cla'am anywhere.

And let;s see what my review says:

Quiet, friendly traditional pub in a very pleasant square, sporting a fine selection of real ales with a small beer garden. A favourite with local Town Hall workers, it's certainly one of Brixton's mellower boozers, although it can get a tad 'rugger shirt' on weekends.

Nope, no mention of Clapham there either.

References to ruggershirts = barely veiled reference to Claam demographic

LOL. Straws. Clutched at.

You have pounced on my Claam comment but i was referring to your general characterisation of the place which I believe to be mistaken.

You were pretty clear on that score, you know:

Why do you keep comparing to it to Clapham?

 

[Orang Utan]

Admit it Ed, you have a wrongheaded bee in your bonnet about it, don't you?

Well you have done, many times.

The failboat is in dock!

Not me. I think it's a very pleasant, mellow pub. In fact, I more or less said that several posts ago before you started making up stuff.

Did you not read the review I just posted up too?

 

[Orang Utan]

Why do you keep mentioning a braying ruggershirted clientele, who you also explicitly link to the area of Clapham in other posts, then?

I'm confused, is TK Maxx going to be selling rugby shirts in the Trinity? Can't see it working myself.

Where do I keep mentioning a ' braying ruggershirted clientele ,' you nutter?!

Yes. They'll be selling the all-new, Limited Edition, Braying variety, complete with a bag of random links.

You're always banging on about them. There's a seam of misperceived scorn of a fictional clientele, stamped right through your posts, like rock.

You've quite lost your marbles!

 

[Orang Utan]

You're the one with the overactive imagination. Obsessed with ruggershirts. It's like you're stuck in an episode of Men Behaving Badly circa 1994

Quite mad.

 

[Orang Utan]

The lady doth protest too much. There's nothing wrong with having a bee in your bonnet.
It's quite alright you know. There, there!

 

[teuchter]

I think we need to discuss ruggershirts vs. checked shirts.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

You're all talking shirt!

 

[gabi]

The Trinity's cool for what it is, the Albert is now and then, maybe the Rest is Noise was (maybe i never gave it a proper chance), the Beehive's even cool if you're in the right state of mind.. basically, theres a time and a place for all these....

for the record tho, ive never seen anyone in a rugby shirt in the trinity... seems a pretty thin argument against what is a decent boozer.

It's not an argument. It's an observation.

 

[gabi]

well ive never observed this in there

A load of men having a shit together? No, me neither.

 

[RaverDrew]

The Trinity is dull, full of suits and rugby shirted chaps every time I've been in there, far too posh. Couldn't even enjoy a quiet pint and conversation in there because of all the racket being made by them Hooray Henrys and braying yupp's.

The Rest is Noise was marginally better but always annoyingly full of hipsters, fuck paying nearly £4 for a can of red stripe poured into a glass too.

Give me the Beehive over them two any day. (if I wasn't barred that is)

 

[gabi]

how in the flying fuck did you get banned from the beehive?

 

[RaverDrew]

long story

 

[gabi]

top effort. as a regular ban-ee from virtually every other establishment in brixton, i can only salute you

 

[Orang Utan]

I don't want to drink in any establishment that would let Raverdrew in, or that he would enjoy.
