Introduction

A blog for stuff about the pubs & clubs of Chesterfield, in Derbyshire, in England.

First up: some of the stuff on here is well out of date. I bunged it up, thought "Done that;" and lost the will to update it. But some folk have said nice things about it so now - as of August 2010 - I'm back to fiddle about with it. A lot has changed in town in the years since I first put this up, but it's a spare time thing and well down my list of priorities. I hope it is fun, for all that!

The opinions expressed about individual places are mine. If you want to leave comments of your own, or correct me if I'm factually wrong about anything, please feel free to use the "comments" thing at the end of each section. If the order of stuff appears to be haphazard, use the "previous posts" bar on the right to navigate until I've sorted out proper links to each page.

I've blogged this stuff because I find it a bloody sight easier to do than to try to run it as a "proper" website. Its not a proper "blog" so please don't be distressed by the lack of regular updates or the daily addition of pithy articles.

I've tried to show where various places are open or closed, but it is a bit of a lottery nowadays, with most places closing periodically when their apparently short leases expire, before new tenants are found. I hope any current inaccuracy in such information is thus excused. Enjoy! The Beer Monster
