i think it would be brilliant for it to re-open. too many public houses are being closed down. most are turned into corner shops or just pulled down.

Bill Etheridge, the UKIP candidate, is from Sedgley, it depends on which part of Wolverhampton the anti-Monarchist Labour Party candidate comes from which makes it debatable which of these two live the nearest to Walsall.

I agree completely, there’s great potential with The Bull’s Head if it’s done and maintained right. We had an interesting independent transformation next door as well, with the down-at-heel Carousel being transformed into the bright and cheery Lady Diana earlier this year. I hope the Avion Wetherspoon’s in Aldridge goes ahead, though The Elms may not be quite so keen…

I think it could be great news. The Bulls Head last time I visited, was somewhat grim (no, actually, it was very grim indeed), which was a real shame. I just hope it comes to fruition: restoring that building will be expensive, and the much speculated upon Wetherspoon conversion of The Avion over in Aldridge seems to be taking a long time to start up. You have to admire Wetherspoon for their treatment of old buildings and also for the way they seem to just plain work, turning in a profit and keeping prices low, and even managing, as you say, decent beer and OK food. There's even (anecdotal) evidence that a Wetherspoon pub sometimes actually helps other local pubs by drawing drinkers to an area, rather than killing the competition, as is often claimed.

Merry Belated Christmas, your doing a great job, the Telegraph certainly looks very with it nowadays. Glad to see your getting the hang of WordPress. Hope the new “Hacking Scandal at the Telegraph” is not the Bloxwegian one. All the best for 2012, hope you’ve booked your camera position for the 30th June !!!

Not all that far from Walsall is Birmingham City University (BCU). It has an MA course in Online Journalism. You might want to contact Paul Bradshaw (@paulbradshaw on Twitter) who leads the course.
