One of the local pubs near to where I live in Selly Oak has burnt down! Not that this is a huge loss since it has been shut down for a while now it is just a shock to see the firefighters putting out a fire. I will go and take some pictures tomorrow.
On another point the Brook was the only quite pub left - yes it was generally full of locals but well was the only quiet pub left after the OVT became all loud with crap music on. If I want to go to a pub in Selly Oak now I will go to the Bristol Pear only - at least they have good music on.
