Nice meeting you guys but must dash my GARMIN says MOVE Au revoir
After a drop of timmy Taylors, followed up with a wee dram of fine malt, swilled down with Molie sanitiser.
A cat food sandwich would be lovely to walk home with.
You don't know what your missing.
I remember that guy in the Rose and Crown! Ilkley in the 70's. 8 pints of Bass Charrington and few cockles
Being sick and blaming the cockles
Graham, it's now the Black Hat - you missed a great pub back in the 70's

I remember underage drinking in the Snooker Club in Nuneaton… we had one membership number between about half a dozen of us. Pints of Worthington £1.25, or if we felt like splashing out then Carlsberg was £1.35
Monday night, could take a fiver out and have enough to drink, a couple of quid for snooker, cheap night. Tuesday mornings were a bit rough though!
Village pubs for me.
Webster bitter or Tetley bitter were the brew to practice on.
Because when you had a few Taylors Landlord the evening became very short and messy.
And the muscles, cockles and winkles was round every Friday and Saturday.
23p a pint when I started.
When it went less than 4 pint per quid i threatened to stop drinking.
The rest is history.
First underage pint, purchased by the biggest of us school kids that was sent to the bar with the cash was I recall 1 shilling and 10 pence. When inflation took it over 2 shillings (that is 10p for you youngsters) nearly stopped drinking!
Should say I won't be in for a day or two as residing in the sanitorium with a very nasty dose of gastro entiritus, or something like it. Not pleasant and feel very poorly - Missus won't even give me scotch:(
I remember when going "up the City", as Coventry City was universally known back then, was £4...
£4 wouldn't even buy you a Sausage Roll in the concourse now!
Oracle are you hiding from me???
Not hiding in here Stagger. But please note the 'no politics' sign over the bar. Any of that nonsense, and Bytey will toss you out on your ear!
Religion, politics and one other are the scourge of any masters lounge.
Wonder where the devil he is?
Well another peaceful day.
Just called in for a cold lager shandy after my round of golf at Skipton. A nice part of the world.
I think he's taking a little time out, sore throat. You remember the other evening when he was sat at the bar holding forth about everything from your golf clubs to my fishing reels, didn't stop talking for 5 hours?Quote:

I'm sure he will be back in soon once feeling better, but for gods sake don't ask his opinion on something again!
Whisky and coke please. Grouse please.
Have you taken a wrong turn Stagger? Shouldn't you be in the Airport Lounge on the way to Turkey!
I don't think we serve coca cola in the masters lounge, we do have standards you know and certainly not for mixing with scotch whisky. American bourbon and cola are acceptable as both taste of soap and neither can be spoiled.Quote:

A couple of pints of best Belgium ale washed down with half a bottle of red.
Could do with the cobwebs removing from the ceiling above the piano.
I was just getting the ladder out to do it when the Elf and Safety bloke called....he had a fit. So there it stays. Soz
Do we know what caused the fit?
Allergy to hard work, smell of old cobwebs or the fact he caught you again in the lounge?
Its what I had in my hand!
Surely not the peacock feather duster.
Enough to scare any white coated clipboard officer. Especially when it says stolen from Ilkley lap dancing club.
:D:D too true!
Right, after a couple of cheeky gins, let's get this place dusted before the end of restrictions. Might use it as a school over load and what would the posh kids think coming here?
No 🐴tails please, these are banned from the lounge forthwith.
Put another log on't fire.
Let's have a wee belly warmer too.
Double neat scotch my dear landlord.
I'm putting a bin at the door for Adidas branded face masks. Anyone found to be concealing such contraband will have to down a yard of Tetley Bitter.
Without spilling down yer shirt.
Excuse me barman.
Would you mind going to the cellar and pouring me a glass of Quinta do Vallado Adelaide Tributa Port please.
Only if you put your Name, Address, Telephone Number and Bathnight on that bit of parchment on the table by the door. The Quill and Ink is in the drawer. Thank you, Sir.Quote:
