The world's turned. Everything moves on, as is right and proper. Some just can't cope. I'm done with those who automatically say "It wor better then...".  No Tosh, it wasn't. Some things, like warm beer and blinkered ideas on change, weren't.

I've never had a pint of Stones, Wards or Whitbreads 

Yer not missing out on much. As a young un, I only drunk them cos that's all there was. I definitely don't miss any of them.

there was watneys red barrel as well, but i did like stones and pulled many a good pint of magnet at the lion/lamb  , we did smaller barrels, real ale let them stand as in tap/vent, but i settle for john smiths these days,there was a great pint of wards at the roundhouse, but there was a hand pull by wards that brian the landlord drank, but one night the electric went off and the pub was pretty full and he said it was the more expensive beer somthing with honey or bottles, we the power cut went on all night and hes was a bit miffed as we drank all his favourite beer and as it was hand pump it took a few days to get it back on, but he kept a good pint of wards.
