Do You Want to Rephrase That?



Now here's what you call truth in advertising. The poster above, on which the local branch of the Varsity advertises its pub grub, is looking a mite ill-advised in view of this news item about the same pub in the Wolverhampton Express and Star this week:

Bosses of a Wolverhampton city centre bar have been told to pay more than £8,000 after admitting “appalling” standards of hygiene.
The kitchens of The Varsity, in Stafford Street, were found to be filthy, a court was told.
Donna Richards, prosecuting on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council, said  there was a “significant accumulation of grease and food debris on the floor” during the inspection in November last year.
Buckinghamshire-based Barracuda Bars Co Ltd, which runs the venue, admitted two counts of failing to comply with food hygiene regulations at Wolverhampton Magistrates’ Court yesterday.
The company was fined £7,000 for the two offences, ordered to pay £1,045.49 in costs and a £15 victim surcharge.
