Last time I was in there, you could buy porn in the toilet from a little vending machine.

If it's had a make over, will there be better porn?
or maybe just a higher class of porn, involving posh girls? i'd like that a lot

Posh girl porn is WICKERD, especially if it involves them getting done up the gary.

It's been taken over by the bloke who used to be the manager at The Grand Hotel - the delighted monikered Andrew Coggins. Wants to make it a posh nosherie, apparently.

Okey-dokey. If I go I'll either be there before 7:00 or after 9:00. Will any other of the Bike Track GOONS be there?

no idea about the PP tavern, though some pubs in town have a dislay of the free 'blue guide' to brighton..

some items for sale inside would make your eyes water!

This has now been sold and closed (temporarily?) Anyone heard on the grapevine what is going to happen to it?

Been sold to Brighton inns or summat. They own the mash tunn, earth and stars and a long list of other decent brighton and hove pubs so don't imagine they will change too much about the PPT. Especially as the area doesn't really need a hardcore drinkers pub. More gastro pub fare I think.

Sadly going to see more plubs close. Presumably smoking ban putting people off with the recession?

No I'm pretty sure that's not quite right. I understand it's been sold to the other Brighton pub group: Indigo, which owns the hop poles, hanover, hobgoblin, eagle etc.
But I suspect you're right that the formula won't change much, as it's been sold as a going concern.
