Spoons in the morning is a depressing place, missed my 6am train earlier in the year, next one was 7.30 so went into the spoons next door to wait. Seeing blokes queing up for a pint at that time was depressing.
Why?
They could be on nights and just put a shift in.
When Manchester had a fish market, the local pubs used to open at all hours round Shudehill.
There are a lot of things in this world that truly are depressing, but some bloke queuing up for a pint isn't really one of them.
Nij giving people the benefit of the doubt yet again! I'm 99% sure these men don't have jobs at all. They're alcoholics plain and simple with their benefits ensuring the drink keeps flowing. It's the same faces again and again and again.
My personal preference would be for Spoons not to serve alcohol until Midday to let us breakfast and coffee types consume in peace. My order usually takes a minute or so and then the Bar person has to make my coffee. I'm usually getting fierce death stares from men wanting their second Fosters of the morning whilst they impatiently wait at the bar. I'd actually go elsewhere but there's no Café in the area around me. They've all closed.
