It’s amazing what you see on the roads in London these days:
There probably won't be any bookshops - there certainly wasn't a bankruptcy
There probably won't be any bookshops if we leave them to the Brewers

can you come up with anything better?

Not better, but appropriate – “There probably won’t be any pensions the cash has gone to Brewer Bank.”

No sooner suggested than done:
There probably won’t be any pensions…

“You can make buses cease and desist
But you can’t keep bloggers quiet
About SPCK and SSG” – here.

There probably won`t be any Christian bookshops: try reading what`s in stock and join the Brewer Nitwits Party`s Jihad.

I think you’ll need an extra-long bendy bus for that one, Mousey. I kinda like this one, but some may find it offensive…

Third Space Books! A good place for a B&B.

Peter Kirk that was fantastic absolutely fantastic.

One for a triple bendy bus: Work for the Brewers, sleep in a bus station, breakfast is up to you.

Up North all I can see is a long worm on a bus.

A new slogan for us, maybe?

Figured I’d collect a few together in the Art Gallery to form our own BBC Channel: the Brewer Bus Collection.

How about: There isn’t a bookshop in Sheffield but it has books in it.
Justice // February 11, 2009 at 9:04 pm |
Can anyone tell me whats going on at the Sheffield shop .Is there a bookshop ?
Phil Groom // February 11, 2009 at 10:56 pm |
There may not be a bookshop, but there’s sure to be a brewery… and a bad, bad smell because what’s brewing isn’t beer.
David Keen // February 12, 2009 at 10:49 am |
Pedants corner: from what I remember the Wards brewery in Sheffield closed down a few years back. Foul stuff anyway.
MOUSEY // February 13, 2009 at 10:02 am |
Not strictly about the Brewers – but shows why we need good Christian bookshops.
CHRISTIANITY: God in a manger
SECULARISM: dog in a manger!

Saw a wondeful slogan – you can take an athiest to the evidence but you can’t make them think. To change this about M + B Brewer you can show the Brewer’s the facts but you can’t make them admit them.
Phil Groom // February 15, 2009 at 8:13 pm |
Not sure that suggesting that atheists can’t or won’t think is the way to win any respect for the Christian cause, Phelim: most atheists I know have come to their beliefs precisely because they’ve given the matter a lot of thought; but I know plenty of so-called Christians who don’t seem to have thought through their faith, let alone what it implies for the way they treat other people.
Back to the buses, however: here’s one to sing along to. All together now, you know the tune:
The stock in the shops
goes round and round, round and round…
Phelim McIntyre // February 16, 2009 at 9:11 am |
My experience is very different to your’s Phil. Try discussing the problems with evolutionary and big bang theory with athiests and you will see what I mean – the majority of athiests I know have more faith than Christians, their faith is just in an unproven set of scientific theories that they trumpet as proof.
MOUSEY // February 16, 2009 at 10:32 am |
Just looked again at the league table for posts to this blog. How about:
Brewers demand `immediately` and postpone indefinitely.
Phil Groom // February 16, 2009 at 12:58 pm |
Phelim: I guess it depends on the approach you take. Dismissing “evolutionary and big bang theory” as “an unproven set of scientific theories” is simply grist to the atheist mill. There’s plenty of scope for discussion and discovery in the details of how evolution took place, but to flatly deny it in the face of what we now know is like claiming the earth is flat… but this is a discussion for elsewhere, I think, so I’ll say no more.

If bookshops with worthwhile contents still existed, someone might suggest you go out and buy a copy of David Wilkinson`s `Space, Time and Stephen Hawking.`
