Id rather they pick someone out and ask what they want, preferably to the person next in line!

Definately handy to get two pints in when the bar is always crowded. When the World Cup comes soon - a big round!!
I don't agree with you at all, if you are before the other 2 who shouted out at the same time and you know you are first then make sure you get served before them. Grow a spine man :)
I know people have different ideas in their head when they go to a pub, but when I go to the pub the last thing im after is an argument / conflict, or getting on the wrong side of someone in any way.
I know what some people are like.. The toys these days can come out of the pram for absolutely anything however pointless or stupid the scenario is!

I agree with the mostly with what your saying here but still i wont let people walk all over me especially if it is your local as the example you set means you could get this all the time you use this particular bar.

I never have that problem in my local lol, if theres 20 people in the whole bar its classed as packed out, plus sam who runs the bar is brilliant too, 9 times out of 10, by the time i have walked in, said a quick hello to a few other regulars on the way in and got over to the bar she has already poured it and its ready waiting for me!

Just clever marketing. The bud pack has 2 cans less, the carling 3 cans less, the miller & becks are only 12 bottle packs compared to the 15 you get at tesco's. It's all the the small print fella :wink:
