Nationwider Posted 31 July 2006 Posted 31 July 2006 Not Leicester - but I used to like going to the Blacksmiths Arms in Loughborough. Until it got a chav-over and went all lime-green walls and sofas. God knows what it's like now? Pity really - it was a basic pub, but friendly. And it had bar billiards. Where can you play bar billiards these days?

Where can you play bar billiards these days? The Black Lions was another good pub until it turned into Hobgoblins. http://www.loughboroughpubs.co.uk Looking through that website makes me feel old. I cannot believe that Rickenbackers is closed and that the Bitter End is still open. Probably still full of 14 year olds.
