Baby food

In the Guardian today (well I am travelling) there is an article about the loss of traditional pubs, focussing on the Lewes Arms in, well Lewes. This pub is being boycotted by it's regulars as the new owners (Greene King) have stopped selling "Harveys" Real Ale.

Valami Goodyear, 53, a regular for 35 years, says: "My son took his first solid food in the Lewes Arms ... the corner of a beer mat."

I'm boycotting Ruddles and Old Speckled Hen in sympathy.

Update 30/3/07: A lot of hits from the Greene King TLD, so they must be monitoring this campaign. I doubt my boycott has affect the sales figures much, but they obviously hate bad publicity.
