Does that place still operate? Last time I was in Wakey, I went down Brook Street on the pilgrimage to Allums, and with the exception of the 2 butchers' shops, and possibly an army stores, I think every other shop had closed.
I think you have a good point, though. Do the place up a bit, get a few good, local beers in, put on good quality, traditional snap, and I reckon you'd be on a winner.
We could have a forum whip-round, form the traditional "consortium of local businessmen" to buy the place out, run it as a Trinity pub... There is a market for quality, and if it means paying a bit more, supping a bit less, but savouring what you're getting, then everyone's a winner in the long term.
he'll take a look at the Wakefield Arms too? He seems to be stuck in his current post with little chance of promotion, he could take it on as landlord, or maybe he sees it as the beginning of all concrete carbuncles.
