What a shithole of the highest order.
The Hat was sound then they fucked it up in the 80's.
All mirrors and fake plants and renamed it Junipers.

agreed, and The Falcon, in fact all the Langley boozers had someone in there that could get you whatever you wanted.2sheikhs said:The new broom, junipers and the cardinals hat were the same.charliebigspuds said:The Gay Gordon/ The Welcome Inn (pmsl laughing that they renamed it that) on the top of the hill in Langley, there was absolutely nothing you couldn't get in there, whatever you wanted if it wasn't on the premises it would be sourced and delivered before you'd finished your pint.
Sounds like The Slaughtered Lamb in American Werewolf In London, went in a pub in St Ives just like that, they just stared at me and the wife for five mins, thought the guys playing darts were gonna say..you made me miss my shot.. frighteningtidyman said:Timmmmahhhh said:The Flash said:I'm just going to add Glossop as a whole. One that sticks out was The Beehive. Thankfully i was in there with a bloke I know who was a local, so they only stared at me for the first 2 hours.
The Royal Oak in Edgeley, at the end of the precinct, is the same. My ex's dad used to live opposite William Hill and we went in there one night (his local) and as I walked in I'm pretty sure everyone is was staring and the barmaid even stop pouring a pint halfway through.
The music may even have turned off.
I have to stick up for the Royal Oak. A bunch of us used to go in there every year for the opening day of The Cheltenham Festival. None of us used to step foot in the place for the rest of the year but they would be expecting us like old lost friends every year.
We walked in one year and some old guy was sat at "our" table and the woman told him to shift as " the racing lads always sit there." The poor old **** probably went in there seven days a week and got shifted for a bunch of once a yearers.

I went in one lunchtime for a colleagues leaving do,and in the space of ten minutes I saw about five drug deals,two pensioners necking,a girl being sick into a pint pot,someone thrown out for trying to steal a picture,a bloke headbutting his girlfriend,and an evil looking Staffordshire Bull Terrier doing the world's longest ever canine piss on some poor girls Barbour jacket.
An utter freakshow of wrongness,and this was at lunchtime.
She wasn't my girlfriend, merely a casual aquaintence.
