As expected, the Rye Hotel has been sold. So fpr a few days it is closed, silent - Paused even - while its new owners, the Capital Pub company, presumably take stock and put their plans into operation.
One can only hope that the new plans include (i) removal of the large, hideous, over-photoshoped photographic prints that litter the walls, (ii) a brighter paint job than the ubiquitous battleship gray with which the pub is currently blighted, and (iii) fresh, new wallpaper that (at the very least) does not have a predominant colour of mud. Of the wallpaper that the previous owners favoured, one of our offspring has pointed out that it is exactly the wallpaper they use on Dave - only substantially less colourful.
Oh, and proper lighting would be quite nice, as would an attempt to get rid of the annoying small flies that flit around the bar.
I'm not asking for much...
