stony said:Myself and a couple of mates went to stay in rented farmhouse in Cumbria once. I was only about 18 or 19 at the time and we were staying with 5 Australian girls who were absolutely fucking mental. One of them was my best mates cousin and his dad picked them up from the airport and took them to stay with them for a few days and he offered them all a drink. One of them chimed up "ah cheers kenny, my throats as dry as a nuns ****" you can imaging the silence that followed.
I'm only telling you that one to set the scene for the farmhouse weekend. When we got their they'd already been there a week and the local pub was well and truly pissed off with them.
We went in on the Friday night and we had old men in their 80s telling us to "fuck off back to Australia"
When we tried getting in again on the Saturday they actually had a lookout on the door who ran in when he saw us coming down the lane and they locked the door, closed the curtains and turned out all the lights. I couldn't believe it, grown men hiding behind the curtains shushing each other in case we heard them.
It was the same weekend that my mate got so pissed I manage to convince him that he tried to shag a goat. I told him he'd chased it round a field with his pants around his ankles and a semi on. He made me promise to not to tell anyone. Every couple of years when he was pissed and we were alone he'd mention it again "did I really try and shag that goat? thanks for being a good mate and never telling anyone" One of the Aussie girls even sent him a badge that said 'I'm a getchi' which we were assured was Aussie slang for goat fucker.
Not sure about nowadays not been in at feeding time for a long time with living far away now, but i know theres still a huge sign on the side that says ''speciality RABBIT PIE'' bollocks i cant see Carol stood there skinning rabbitsThe cookie monster said:Made me laughblue underpants said:It has taken over as the NO 1 drinking hole for the younger loons of Ashton whereas the Prince attracts the over 35 market, iv seen couples do their shopping and pop in with all their shopping bags at 4pm , gone back at 9 and they are still there pissed as farts singing and dancing away until 11, then they toddle off home with all their stuff defrosted, fuckin fruitcakesThe cookie monster said:It still doesnt beat the bowling green :)

Stopped for a pint once at a place called Saxmundum (Norfolk or Suffolk) and 4 blokes were in the skittles room at the back practicing battle moves with shields and spears and they were going at it hammer and tongues, sure enough one stabbed this massive Brian Blessed looking bloke in the arm with his spear so he launched his right at his head only his shield saved him.w@nkypants said:It's about the same, some seriously strange people in those parts and that's coming from me:)blue underpants said:No but iv been boozing in deepest rural Norfolk, some pubs made the Slaughtered Lamb look hospitablew@nkypants said:To many to list, but anyone been out drinking in Lincolnshire?

Got into loads of fights in Boston and Spalding when I was younger the locals thought we were from an RAF base and wanted to try it on with some army boys, they were mistaken thinking me might play by any rules of fair play:)blue underpants said:Stopped for a pint once at a place called Saxmundum (Norfolk or Suffolk) and 4 blokes were in the skittles room at the back practicing battle moves with shields and spears and they were going at it hammer and tongues, sure enough one stabbed this massive Brian Blessed looking bloke in the arm with his spear so he launched his right at his head only his shield saved him.w@nkypants said:It's about the same, some seriously strange people in those parts and that's coming from me:)blue underpants said:No but iv been boozing in deepest rural Norfolk, some pubs made the Slaughtered Lamb look hospitable
