We used to park up near upper Lloyd street when we played at Maine Rd, occasionally had a pint in the Robin Hood, that was an experience.

On our trips to London to watch City in the 90’s we’d sometimes call in at a pub called The Flying Scotsman near Kings Cross. If you’ve been in you’d know.

Remember that pub in the arndale? Think it used to be near were that drag bar was, opposite printworks. Fuck me, couple of us went in during the week once. The place was like the fucking slaughtered lamb out of American werewolf. One swift one and off we popped.

Was it called the John Willie Lees at some point? If so, agree it was an experience.

WOW I`d forgotten all about this post. Yes in its heyday it was a wonderful place to visit and plenty of outside room.
Very strange how it mysteriously went up in smoke.
Now call me a sceptic but ... ;)

I’ve got a few tales about pubs and nightclubs catching fire!

Stuff like this on Facebook cracks me up. This is Sue’s Bar in Birkenvegas:

Despite the truly appalling English, she still manages to spell licence correctly!

There used to be a pub on Hyde Road (I think) called the Traveller's Inn which, when we went to go in, had a sign on the door that read 'No Travellers Allowed'.
