I’m addicted to weird. the crazies. the wonderfuls. brilliantly-bizarres n brash n bonkers.

This, my friends, is an Ode to Quirk.

My friend, Dom, told me about a delicious boozer,“he said this may be the most creative pub in the world, incredible food, warmth and a David Bowie theme”

The Cartford Inn.

A pub ran by a Lancashire lass, Julie, and a Frenchman, Patrick.

Apres recording la pod Warehouse Project founder Sacha Lord, in Manc.

Tastebuds primed for a Rave of Flave.

Thick, clotting, cloying clouds and snotsodden Rain d..r…i…z..zz..i..lll.ee..dd down.

I took a haughty-naughty-little jaunty upwards to The Cartford Inn.

NEVER in my life have I experienced anything like this.

A panoply of Gastro-wank pervades the world.

General Managers believe they’re Military Generals.

Gavin (but you can call me, Gav).

River Island Rangers. Sly-Sausage-Roll-Scoffers.

Front of House-who’d rather Be-Back-on-Sofa’s.

Cartford Inn is a gorgeous antidote to taht.

For those maniacally obsessed with growth (aka moi)

This episode is a warm cuddle, a slow cuppa, a squeeze, ayy oop-ye’ll be alreet pal.

This conversation made me realise, business is about having fun. lots of fun.
