I used to get a wonderful catalog from The Scottish Lion. I just never had the money to order every thing I wanted..... [:(]

If not, i'd like to volunteer for this. Or, maybe Darcy's idea of us subly ones being a table would work for me, if the ghost position is filled. [:D] The more ghosts the better (good for attracting American tourists you see) Mind you, if you're a ghost ... being a table too might be a touch unpopular with the punters when they put their drinks down on you and they fall straight through you onto the floor ! Pirate Well, not both at once. [8\|] [:D] i'll stick with being a ghost, i think. Though with my luck, i'll probably end up being a server again. Though a kilt checker would be kinda fun, too. [:D]

Lasses walking into the pub and the lads appreciating the tits but still wondering why they are walking into a man's environment..... That is a Northern English pub.

NorthernGent -> RE: If CM was a British Pub? (7/4/2009 12:18:31 AM)
I should qualify this by saying that although I live in Manchester I was born and bred in the pit villages of Durham.......so I know exactly what the North East is all about......the landlord in our local used to let about 10 of us sleep in the pub because he knew that as soon as we woke up we'd want more beer.....and after playing football on Sunday mornings (more like running 'round with street singers trying to decapitate the younger lads) it'd be back to the pub for the strippers and sunday dinners that the landlord would put on for us free of charge to keep us in the pub. The quip about the ashtray wasn't tongue in cheek. One Sunday morning we'd played a team from a few villages away and most of their lads followed Newcastle - all of us followed Sunderland - so the game was bad tempered and littered with nasty challenges with lads trying to break legs. Anyway as per tradition the away team came back to the pub with us for beer and the strippers. The pub was rammed as per any Sunday afternoon - everyone was playing cards or pool with some of the lads losing a lot of money and with the beer flowing half the pub was getting lairy with these lads from Coxhoe in the pub. There was uneasy calm for a couple of hours and then out of the blue one of our lads stood up and clamly said "one for the road lads?" and picked up an ashtray and smashed it over one of their lads' head. The whole pub went up - nasty too with lads getting glassed and chair legs banging off nappers right left and centre. Strange thing was that a couple of the lads in the pub were actually from Newcastle and had moved down to our village - they gave us a hand against some of their own. The kid who started it off with the ashtray ended up in hospital for a few days - silly fucker got knocked out early on proceedings. Anyway - needless to say that it was a case of get out of this place to avoid wasting my life. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent The barmaids up here are usually nice and trim The mining villages of Durham are like the land that time forgot mate. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent WTF? You've clearly not been drinking in Newcastle Unsual granted - though I've seen it in Manchester a few times. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent Very very rare. Very common in Durham. Horse racing is still popular there - as is pigeon racing - suppose it depends on where you drink. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent There's always someone quoting that. The odd thing is, when he nips off to the gents there's always someone else ready to take his place. I never heard it in Durham - partly because people just aren't political there and are more concerned with beer and football. But Manchester is rife with it. Sit at the bar in a traditional pub in Manchester and within 10 minutes someone will be over moaning about how everything's going to the dogs. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent Depends on the pub, the quiet pubs only seem to have women in that are accompanied. True. In the working-men's clubs in Durham there is still the bloke's part of the pub where the horse racing is on the tele and the lads play snooker - and the lasses' end where the bingo is and they can sit and chat away from the coarse language of the blokes. Seriously. quote: ORIGINAL: NorthernGent Pop up to the Kink Meet in September mate, JonnieBoy and I will take you to some pubs up here. I guarantee you'll enjoy yourself. Could do that......cheers for the offer.

Luckily, for all of that, no matter what walls are "erected" and what languages are forced down the throats of "The Talent", yer STILL a Celt, NG. I mean c'mon, you LOOK like Mark Pesci but you're better looking and more fun to read. TOTALLY Celtic (in the Pre-Padraig tradition, I mean, of course). (And no offense to Mark, since ya knows I loves ya Mark, even if regarding non-traditional forms of filmic distribution you DO lead us down the Garden Path from time to time...) /raises foamy pint of Beamish in one hand to NG and toasts him with a pint of Smithwicks with the other; yeah, I drink 2 -fisted
