ARE YOU someone who has fancied yourself pouring pints rather than drinking them?

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to stand on the other side of the bar?

Well, if you've entertained that idea, now could be your time to shine as there are three watering holes in Southampton currently up for grabs.

Empty out your piggy bank or start saving to put yourself forward for the running of pubs in Southampton town centre, Bitterne Park and Brambidge in Eastleigh.

Without further ado, here are the three pubs up for grabs, according to the findmypub.com website.
