Are there any pubs where you still get

[Shooms]

these ?

it's all fancy poncey glasses like these nowadays...

PS the stuff that comes back on google image when you type in "pint glass weird" ... :|

You just don't get barrel glasses these days do you - they were everywhere when I was a nipper as well (pint and half sizes). I always remember my dad drinking out of a barrel glass - before he stuck it in someone's face for looking at him the "wrong way" or for being black.

Ah the good old days with their good old traditions

All the old ways are slowly dying out All it takes is a few generations to not keep up the traditions & a whole heritage has disappeared..

Knitting, the Welsh speaking Welsh, homemade pastry, beating up of people for simply being a different colour...

Thank the Lord for Jack Black & his faithful dog Silver

ya can still get them in old country pubs in cumbria and lancashire
and in 'the ship' in san an lol tho you wouldnt want to actually drink out of them without them being washed first, look like they have been hung there for years lol

 

[Jiglo]

My local must have stopped before I started going there as they've never had em.

Reckon we should have the litre glasses here like they have all around Europe. Especially in very busy pubs

I say this to Amelie (but she doesn't listen or take any notice) but Jack Black & his dog Silver are by far my favourite strip in Viz. Top stuff.

There was one where there was some foreigners selling milk when there wasn't any milk around and Aunt Meg called the bloke a "cheating Arab rob dog" and Silver through snarled teeth said "glack glastard". It could have been the same one where there was loads of dog shit round the village which didn't turn out to be a dog but Paula Radcliffe

Take your foreign ways & get the fuck out of my country

A pint's a pint & is British through & through...

Litres are for Johnny Foreigner white-flag-waving, collaborating sausage-eating types...

Back off Brusselles

Mine too Loved the one with Pete Docherty & Aunt Meg the crack-dealing biatch

 

[Jiglo]

haha but it's the future, i've tried it

Drinking 7% alcohol out of those litre glasses doesn't make a lot of sense though, so maybe we should stick to pint glasses and weaker ale

I'm liking the Xmas one... Aunt Meg unable to open a nazi memorabilia stall on the village Xmas market because she's not German... The evil Dr. Liebfraumilch... gloating and taking all the trade, even though he had no right to be there himself, because he was born the day before the signing of the treaty of Versailles, and was therefore Austro-Hungarian. The gypping bugger.

Great to see a comic that's bucked all the fads of popular culture and still tells it like it is

 

[Lozzie]

I remember watching the news ages ago...and it told of the closure of the facture that makes the glasses...so basically, they're out of production. Probs somthing to do with the fatalities siurrounding them. Imagine getting hit with one of those fuckers...it'd totally rearrange ur face!

 

[old_skool_daze(Phil)]

I think there illegal now as they don't shatter



I know there's only one in my local.

aww those spring onions are cute



and I agree ... Jack Black and Silver is funny as fook
I love Viz

 

[Mr Radish]

You get them in the Spread Eagle in Lymm .. . . if you ask.

I do . . . .especially with my pint of Ruddy Glow or JW Lees Mild.

The last traditional manufacturer of these tankards was based in the North West and closed a few years ago.


The French make some copies, but they are not the same.

 

[Kate.S]

When I worked at the Rugby Club we had them there, bit annoying to pull pints in though :S

 

[coggledots]

Any Sam Smiths pub, proper traditional shit holes, with beer that blows ya head off served in them there 'proper' glasses & at £1.54 a pint too

Just waiting for me taxi & i'm off to my local one for a few
