the highfield just up the road from the waggon was a right rough hole years and years ago, remember some of the lads had been out rabbitting, came back and stuck a ferret down the pool table while the bloke who was playing was ordering his pint, picture him lining up the black when a ferret sticks its head out of one of the pockets!!wilky2868 said:hahahaha, my local, feck all wrong with it!! :-))Lucky Toma said:There's a place called the Wagon and Horses in Blacon, near Chester where I genuinely get scared just by being in there.

The Pear Tree was a good drink and a bit rough if you were an outsider - I played football for them for a few seasons in the late 90's and they had some bruisers.
My Dad played for the Cock of the North and was there when some guy got shot, aswell as the Portway for years.
