The pub trade is fast dying out James, these little gems of yours are actually helping to document the last gasps of our once plentiful "home from homes" & local community establishments. Thank you for that.

I don't think it's dying out. I travel all over and you have regional winners.....and losers. For instance, l live in Saltaire, pubs and bars do well for a little place, a mile away Shipley is quieter although much bigger, another 2 miles is Bradford which is a dead zone. Next door is Leeds which is banging.

@@saltaireorangebicyclechopp8555 Hi, I was literally born within the pub trade in 1965. My parents were pub owners and I grew up within the pub that they owned until I moved out to live with my girlfriend at age 21. I have seen the pub trade decline for myself, especially since the smoking ban. For instance just last year alone 500+ pubs closed down for good (these are government figures for 2023). Younger folk are not using Pubs in high enough numbers to replace the trade of the older folk who are dying off. I am not saying that there aren't occasional local exceptions to this, but, nationally & generally the pub trade is dying a slow and painful death. A quick check on the losses registered by the top Pub chains will demonstrate this. Just check "pub closures by year" & you will see for yourself. All the best 👍

@@Buddhavibez l'm not finding that, it depends where you live & visit. 2 weeks ago l was in Leeds with my son, Leeds pubs were rammed at 1pm Saturday. I paid over £13 for 2 pints. We then got the train to Bradford to watch the football, same 2 pints in Bradford £5.60!! But Bradford was very, very quiet.

Brilliant James. All of us 50 somethings had the best of times in the 80,s with packed bars and nightclubs, when we spent all week looking forward to Friday and Saturday nights out. Feel sorry for the young today not getting to experience this. I grew up in Newcastle upon Tyne where the nightlife there and nearby Whitley Bay was just amazing......just wish I could go back in time !!

I bloody enjoyed that James.. Two old friends reminiscing and seeing how times have changed .. Mark seems like a guy who can look after himself and good to have on your side when walking around a place that looked past it`s best. ... Sad though how time has taken us into the future but has destroyed a lot of the past. We can never get those times back and no matter what we think, the powers that be, call it progress. Thank you James/Mark for a wonderful video that many of us would love to do ourselves.

I’ve been living in Brighton for 45 years but sometimes visit family. We went back into Rotherham town centre last year and was shocked at how down hill it had gone. Take Helen back to the Cuttlers when there is an event on , it absolutely rocking. Thanks James.

Superb content, as always, and I know I've said it before but you're a welcome breath of fresh air from naysayers, doom merchants and drama seekers. Vlogs like this might hopefully remind some people what they're missing in terms of the social interaction, chance encounters and reyt laughs you get in pubs but can't recreate by staying at home. At least people who might not be able to get out and about like they once could can watch this and have their fond memories refreshed, and some more might give "gooin' dahn't boozer" a swansong before it vanishes altogether.

In the late '70's early 80's we would go up & down the pubs on Westgate on sat night, the next Sat do the same on Wellgate, the Mail Coach was were all the bikers would park up through the archway, I remember during the hot summer of '76 everybody sat outside on the pavement at night on Wellgate. My hubby & his 4 brothers got free drinks Xmas day lunchtime coz they lived on Wellgate & went in more or less every night. Then the town centre the next weekend & finish up at The Trades club coz it was close to dash round to the bus station for the last bus. I remember your grandma James, such a glamorous lady, I worked across the road at Masons jewellers our boss & Elsie were always backwards and forwards selling each other stuff. Great memories.

Masons reinvented itself as a gastro pub a few years ago. Red Lion has struggled a bit recently but the Ball is still going strong and the Travellers has now reinvented itself as a pub restaurant called The Barley.

Arh really enjoyed this vlog, your mate is just as down to earth as you. Loved listening to those blokes outside the high house 😂. Used to go round Rotherham "back in the day" been in all those you went to, but what a shame to see the town how it is now, places burnt and boarded up, yet look beyond that there's some lovely buildings. Makes you feel sad in a way, things are not the same. Love your videos James

I live in the North East but have been to Rotherham watching Sunderland quite a few times including at Millmoor and my daughter also lived nearby for a few years so know the place reasonably well. You missed the Bridge Inn which is a decent pub in my opinion near the railway station. That and the New York Tavern and Cutlers are our go to pubs for the match and good to see them both still open although I am used to both of them being packed on a match day. For some reason Rotherham is one of the places that bans away fans from the pubs now, which I find dissapointing but we don't wear colours and can normally blag our way in as one of our group is not from the North East and has a non descript accent and we let him do the talking while the rest of us act dumb. We have met some great fans of the Millers and some good people generally there over the years and I have always enjoyed it. Its a proper Northern town. Great watch.

I was born in Sheffield but adopted Rotherham as my new home town. It's so sad what's happened now. The best pub by far now is the Cutlers.

You need to go and have a beer around Mexborough with you, Helen; some nice little micro pubs and the Gorilla bar are cool and reasonable.

As a 51 year old man who left Rotherham 23 years ago, it’s like sitting with 2 mates (who I’ve never met) going through my youth. Loved Pacha, Elliots and New York Tavern is awesome on a match day with Cutlers.

Dublin has its fair share of problems regarding the foreigners and drugs and crime etc as many big city but it’s far from deserted and the quality of life here is at a different level. I’ve been to a lot of places in the Uk and it’s in a serious decline.You can’t deny that

I'm from Rotherham and watch your channel all the time , the cutlers is okay buy I don't like chantry beer , yes they have bands on but they are mostly tribute bands , just a heads up to the bridge pub that has up and coming new bands who do original material, it's a old mill brewery that's got comfy settees , with two floors of live music , And the three cranes is a lovely old pub that serves real ales and is a listed building 😊

Great piece, nice for you to catch up with your buddy. Me and the good lady did a Yorkshire weekend a couple of years back, Barnsley Leeds and then Rotherham over three nights, we took in a game at the New York Stadium as I think it was called just like all romantics would. Strangely a few locals said don’t go out in Rotherham on the Saturday night so we went Barnsley instead which was buzzing. Old town looked all right though
