Old school mate of mines dad used to run the cunarder back in the 80's, never got any free bevvies seeing as I was only about 10 at the time.

Whenever I met a girl in town we always went in the Cunarder first. Slick bastard me.

You might be thinking of Allinsons, my mum worked there late 60s up to about 76.

That's the one. Met some lads from Litherland in Benidorm in the 70s and we met them there for a drink when we got back. Had a great night.

Never a gambler, why I didn't know it.

Never a gambler myself but the lads I knocked about with were. Cards and horses

I assume they were nicknames rather than real ones?

Went in a pub other week, soon as we walked in I realised it stunk of wet dog. Literally everyone in looked like smack heads and none of them weighed more than 9 stone. There was a shopping trolley randomly sat in the middle of the floor. The landlord brought us a free whisky as he seemed to think as we were relatively normal we were undercover cops.

Did you have anything to eat?

Funnily enough no. Did warn him if he'd put any date rape drugs in the whisky I'd nick him though

I went in a pub in Croydon and they had a shrine to regulars who’d been murdered.

I used to drink in the Queen Anne In Vauxhall when I worked at Victoria coach station. They had lunch time strippers who between acts would play pool, winner stays on. They were mainly local mums making a bit of cash whilst their kids were at school so you’d find yourself playing pool with a 30 something mum with stretch marks and a post baby belly in just her greying marks and Spencer’s pants and bra.

 

It’s now a gastro pub.

When I launch my political career bringing back more rough pubs will be in my manifesto.

 

It will fail miserably as the rough pubs become CO-OPS and Tesco Express (as is the trend in my current constituency)  and people will shout "where are the rough pubs Dave!?"

Didn't the landlady of this establishment get murdered on holiday years ago?

Yes, stabbed in the Dominican republic whilst on holiday.

Not so much rough- I took my then girlfriend into a pub in Camden Town once- it was about 1130 in the morning, only other person in there was a big guy with greasy long hair wearing a dress and there was a sign stuck to the back of the till saying NO DRUGS AT THE BAR.

 

 

Nice

[Bruce Spanner]

In a bikers bar years ago, that @Rico1304 might know actually, The Bike & Hound in Hyde, and a guy at the bar pulled at my lip ring, we all have phases!

 

Anyhow he grabs it and starts pulling, not too hard, but enough for it to not be joking around. Without missing a beat a guy at the bar, a guy I didn’t know, head butted him in one of the most visceral acts of aggression the world has ever know, floors him, doesn’t utter a word and goes back to his pint.

 

The topless barmaid was dumbfounded.

 

It was three in the afternoon.

Fucking hell, is it still open?

 

Its been about fifteen/twenty years since I was last in that part of the world and would have assumed it’d been condemned.

It’s in steady decline but still going.  Opens at 9 on a weekend.
