Subject: RE: BS: Arrrrhg ! It came true !!!
A Pub my friends & I used to use, one of the older Hostelries in Hull (& is well-known to Hull Folkies in search of a good session, though THIS particular lot werent Folkies) was changing Landlords....& because the rumour had gone around that the new Landlord was going to stop all the Real Ale, ruin the atmosphere, & turn it into a 'trendy' place where Lager-louts would gather, we were MOST disgusted...

We made sure that EVERYTHING even remotely saleable to the public got consumed....when the last of us (after everyone else left, late on Sunday night, there was just the 'leaving' Landlady, myself, my then g/f & another friend of ours) staggered out of there at 6 am on the Monday morning (after starting Friday night, with just brief periods to go home for food & sleep) the only liquid left in there was a 1/4 full bottle of 'Martini Bianco' which no-one would drink, & the stuff they cleaned the beer-pipes with (& I feel sure that in our drunken haze we might have sunk a pint or two of that, too....)

Ever had a week-long hangover?
