We've got a Boom Battle Bar (not quite the same thing) Quote THE GAME WITH THE GREATEST AXE-PECTATIONS… Give your best lumberjack impression on this one, you don’t even need plaid or a beard. But seriously, you’re going to love our iconic axe lanes. Oh, and remember… no alcohol before or during this experience, you need to wear closed toe shoes and no heels/sandals, and if you’re lucky enough to have long hair we need you to tie that back. We’re all about the fun but like, safety too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 There’s a place in Worcester that does axe throwing. In one of the little converted railway arch units. Every time I walk past there, the door is open. Can’t help feeling that one day that axe is going to contrive to go flying out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked, no, there’s no bar, but it’s opening times are 4:00pm until 9:00pm… and there are plenty of bars around! £18 for 45 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvfcRigo82 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 What the hell is going on with Flora butter? Bought a tub earlier today. I noticed all the packaging and design had changed but thought nothing more. Try and spread the bloody thing and it rips the bread apart! Another victim of the cost cutting exercise where the 'spreadable compound' within it has obviously been removed. ******s! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might aswell go back to the days where you buy it in the foil and just leave it in the butter dish! As there's no chance in hell I'm paying £7 for Lurpak spreadable!
