Pubs closing like flys up North , its another way of life no going with your mates to the pub for a laugh chat up the girls get refused. Then ease the sulk by trying to eat your mates fish and chips on the way home .Its sit in his home order a take away pizza a DVD + a case of beer ( its claims to be ) from the s/market and talk to each other in the room by texting while watching a sh*t film . God are they missing out even those toasted sandwiches thats tasted like fried dog no mater what was in , washed down with flat beer and while your mate put some crap pop music on the Juke Box you went to the loo . Only to return and find your glass empty.

Talking of loos thats where I met SWMBO the pub was so tiny and the loos next door to each other . A couple of people at a time you had to line up in the hall and wait your turn . Stood chatting and the rest is history 04-12-1976 . If only I had had a bigger bladder and a smaller mouth. Went back to it in 4-12th last year and its just for oldies who want food.
