Caveat emptor, oh dear Simon we do appear to be somewhat behind the times, check out the FSA statutory framework. Caveat venditor! |

RE: Pubs are 'Marmite' for investors > RE: Pubs are 'Marmite' for investors
It may well be a buyers market right now, but will there be transparency and honesty, will the pubcos produce accurate figures supported by evidence, will they tell the new incumbents why the business failed previously, will they ensure that the prospective tenants are fully equipped to take on the job etc, etc, etc or will it be down to the bankroll? Change or business as usual??? Why did the previous 15 incumbents fail? Were they all deemed as incompetent? If so why the hell are the pubcos taking on incompetent licensees, surely that could not be viewed as good business sense? Or did the business fail due to an onerous contract, were the pubcos aware that these businesses would not succeed under the terms set out? Even more importantly is Worcester any different to any other area of this country, or is this a snapshot of the robust pubco model nationwide? |

Well that would depend on the terms of the contract offered, surely? |

Simon, the brewers tenants in 1989 were self employed and had a binding contract and we all know what happened there don't we? |

Do you qualify as an EMPLOYEE of the pubco or not? > Do you qualify as an EMPLOYEE of the pubco or not?
Ok James, no problems, I don't think I ever said that you did speak for anybody else. It was a simple mistake, we both only read first names, that will teach us not to be so slack. Ok I take on board your views, do you believe that the sufficiently documented by-products are beneficial to both of the contract signatories ie are the 'by-products' (such a strange description, but never mind)beneficial to either the tenants or the pubcos? |

OK point taken, interesting. What consequences do you see if choosing to sign such contracts? James Heaven my apologies, I thought I was talking to James Thursk, my fault entirely, only read the first name, doh, although I would still be interested in an alleged (no disrespect intended, but hey the internet's the internet!) brewers representative's opinion. |

James are you implying that it is the tenants fault and that they should have not signed the contracts? |

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICENE > LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICENE
A further 2 weeks passed and God thought he would pay Eve another visit. Again he found her wandering through the Gardens, God sensed that all was not well (Well he is God!). "Hi Eve, is everything ok, you don't seem your normal self" "Well yes God, the gardens are wonderful, I couldn't wish for better. The animals are great, everything is just about perfect" "so what's the problems then Eve, why so down in the dumps?" "Well God, it's just that I am so lonely. All the other animals have their partners, the cows have their bulls, the ewe's their rams. I don't have anybody and I am lonely and a little sad" God pondered for a moment and then declared "You are right Eve, you should have a partner. I will have to make him from a part of your own body." God studied Eve but really couldn't decide which part to use, she was perfect, just as she was, to remove parts just would not do. This was quite a dilemma, God thought on. Suddenly he jumped up and with great glee declared "I've got it!!! Now where did I put that useless tit? |

Maybe time to lighten the mood a little?
This one amused me, but then it would!
Eve's story - according to Eve
A fortnight had passed since God had finished the Creation, He decided to pay Eve a visit to see how thing's were going. He came across Eve wandering through the Garden's of Eden:
"Hi Eve, how is everything? Are you happy?"
Eve replied "Oh God it's beautiful, the gardens and all the animals, it is an absolute wonder. I do have one small problem though"
"What's wrong Eve, can I help"
"Well it's these three breasts that you have given me, well they get in the way. I keep banging them on my arms, bushes, animals, in fact everything. Do you not think it would be better if I had just 2? I mean it will be more symetrical, 2 eyes, two ears, 2 arms, 2 legs and everything will fall into place nicely"
"OK Eve I take on board your point and it is quite right. You have to remember though Eve that this is my first time at this, I gave animals 6 breasts and I just thought I'd give you half, but you are right 2 would be much better"
With that said God removed Eve's middle |
