RESISTING EL PIMPI
Inevitably when you visit a new city, whether Malaga or Maidenhead, you leave having failed to visit at least one “must see”. In Malaga, deterred by numerous Trip Advisor reviews callin…retiredmartin.com

SHERRY FROM THE BARREL

How the fuck can you call any establishment. We use to go in some right weird, knuckledragging or gay bars when we were young. In fact I still do.Were you the one under the pentagram telling us to stay of the moors? :)

The Arden Arms, Stockport has a small room known as ‘the Select’, a really unusual arrangement as it can only be accessed by passing through the bar, with permission from the staff.

My mates and I used to go to a place called Freddy's. It was tiny and most of the regulars there were on government assistance or wrong ones. The owner lived in a run down caravan behind the establishment.
We'd go because you could get a glass, not a pint but 10 ounce glass, of Budweiser for 50p. We went because it was cheap and we weren't of age to legally be there drinking but we didn't cause trouble and we had money to pay.
After a time we were "regulars" and welcomed with open arms. It got to the point where if someone new came in and tried to play the hard man against us the whole place would stand up and let him know it was time for him to leave.

Years ago a pub called Grendels in Ballyhooley, Co Cork.
Despite the smoking ban the urinal trough was full of cigarette butts. A local walked into the bar having used the phone in the kitchen and asked the landlord why he happened to have a toilet roll sitting in his microwave.
The landlord, matter of factly stated, "Well it dropped in the urinal so I had to dry it out somehow".
