A pub I walk past on the way to work managed to fully refurbish its bar and (quite big) lounge between Sunday and Friday.
Passing it made for a nice little time-laspe.

my local changed its name to the cock and seaman
didn't help, it's up for sale for the third time in 4 years.

Was it a deliberate move to rebrand it as a gay pub?

the chain that bought it use the word cock in all their pubs
they think it makes it a bit naughty and will attract customers. it doesn't.
