GUEST,Edthefolkie An Irish pub is...? (67* d) RE: An Irish pub is ............... ??? 19 Mar 08


I'll probably get into trouble here but...

In the 1970s a certain pub across from my place of work in London NW10, much frequented by the N London Irish diaspora, featured:

Instant service

Very large gentlemen behind the bar

Very large sticks kept handy behind the bar

Guinness left to settle and the head tidied up with a knife before serving

Thur/Fri nights, the staff would keep customers' wages behind the bar for them

Sat. nights, collectors for the Sally Army AND the Provos (honest!)

None of yer ersatz leprechaunery there then......
