Is a lunchtime Sunday drink still a thing?

Yorkshire pud with chicken???!!!

The only problem on that plate, Yorkshire Pud wise, is that there should be two minimum.

You can have yorkies with anything.

Cold Yorkshire's with jam,

I think it was more a 1970s and 1980s thing, the Sunday lunchtime drink.
Nowadays there's more drinking at home, if people drink because drinks in pubs can be very expensive especially if you are a heavy drinker.
I also think Sunday Roast dinners have gone out as well.

Maybe now he calls himself David Fast Food Van Day.

Maybe you could have ‘The Fast Food and the Furious” starring Van Diesel?

Never a big fan of Sunday afternoon drinking, but in the early 70's two for the boys (strippers) and a comedian were very popular in the working men's clubs round here.

Can you imagine the uproar if they brought that one back!.

How times have changed.

Better still; filled with cold chilli con carne.

Whilst I get the profit margin angle of food in pubs it has ruined many for us.

It is rare to find a decent pub that really is a pub that happens to sell food (brings back fond memories of scampi or chicken and chips in a basket etc) as now many are seemingly contestants in Masterchef.

The sort of place where it costs two of you about £50-60 for lasagne and a couple of proper (large) glasses of wine apiece from a menu whose food descriptions are more dressed up than Ascot day race-goers.

They are simply pretentious restaurants that have a bar attached to them.

Grrrrr!

The late 1970's and 80's favourite pub grub meal!!

Despite my comment I think he's just brilliant, and as a poet far surpasses Dylan.
That first track 'Everybody knows' is one of his greatest. 'Dance me to the end of Love' is another fab song and very moving.

Agreed, @Cycleops, I like this version of dance me…
