Don't get me wrong, I love EE, can't wait for tonight, but one thing that really bugs me is that in the Vic, whenever a barrel needs changing, it's always a guy who ends up changing it, whatever female happens to be working behind the bar gets the guy to change it. Why is this? It's easy, the new barrel (if the set-up is like any normal pub) will be next to the empty one, so all that would need to be done is swap the connecting pipe thing over (it's been a while since I've worked in a pub, can't remember the terminology!) Women can do it too!!
Roll on tonight!!!

I dont think the cellar in the Vic is set up like most pubs - for example The Vic has a dead Den in it. Not only that I am sure not too long ago I saw Alfie with a wooden hammer knocking a tap into a large wooden barrel...I think they are little behind technologically...

Yeah that's a fair point. I love it as well when sometimes you get someone pouring a pint and they pull the thing down about 7 times and I think what a large pint glass it must be...!

I had never really given it much thought but I guess you're right. However, as you said- roll on tonight!

Can't wait - apart from I will have to as I am out tonight and so have to set the video to watch it tomorrow! Damn it! In fact I still have 15mins of last nights to watch tonight before I go out!

I know what you mean about 7 pulls for a pint - perhaps the system is really really short and so only a tablespoon full of liquid comes out at a time - or perhaps the pint is already pre poured and they are pretending!
