Thread Name: BS: Pub Names
Subject: RE: BS: Pub Names
Some pubs I have known---"The Trip to Jerusalem," Nottingham--"The Goat and Tricycle," Bournemouth--"The Royal Arms",Gosport,known to generations of sailors as "The C**T and Drums" .The Royal British Legion is always "The Leg-Iron" in naval parlance. I did find a pub once called "The Old Woman who Lived in a Shoe"--might have been in the West Country: can"t remember !! "The Donkey House " in Windsor is now a poseur"s restaurant. With regard to an earlier posting--You can"t say,or play the tune from,Captain Pugwash down under ---Pugwash means Blow-Job !!
