Fynger 841 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Finally got a reply on the HAMS "in reply to your questions the ham is supplied by Roger Papworth a local butcher with shops in Conningsby and Woodhall Spa, we are are not a Green King pub, we own it and are a free house so we can pick and choose breweries making them more competetive and giving us a wider choice of ales, we always sell Bomber County and Dambuster as they have an affiliation with the history of the pub, in fact Dambuster is brewed exclusively for the Blue Bell by Tom Woods who are based in Grimsby." Alan. So now we know chaps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

plantfit 7,206 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 First of all I would like to apologise to Rob 237 and Beefsteak for being greedy and eating this lovely plateful of Lincolnshire Ham and Eggs without their assistance in the Blue Bell today, washed down with a lovely 1/2 of Lancaster bomber, Kev, I spoke to Alan the manager and mentioned your name, he made us most welcome and we had a good chat about Nottingham and it's people, very friendly host, The barman deserves a special mention for being friendly and welcoming as soon as we entered the place. Also thought I may have spotted firbeck in the car park, see other post. Looking forward to the next Nottstalgia invasion of bomber county next spring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beefsteak 304 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Get that Charabanc a rolling. We can set up an extra dining room in the car park (As long as the skid marks are gone ....) I think it would be polite to put in an extra order at the butchers for the Ham though !!!!
