Looks quirky, think I will enjoy it, maybe next time!<br /><br />Spit & Vomit!

Quite a unique song from what I could hear, I'd take it over the Coldplay, Glumford & Sons nonsense we usually get in every pub!Si 'BRAPA' Everitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17291680772889990384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677885556404476308.post-85547257390037429672017-09-06T22:22:47.471+01:002017-09-06T22:22:47.471+01:00Very true, must've said furthest north in Engl...Very true, must've said furthest north in England and I got mixed up. I went in Drum & Monkey, couldn't find loo, joined forces with a bloke having same problem, we asked member of staff, but think he thought we were up something dodgy!

Don't know if it's just me, but I always feel slightly drunk when I look at the outside of it!<br /><br />The Nicholson's pub is the furthest north in England I think, but certainly not the UK.
