dead right mg..

me & my mrs celebrated our wedding aniversary in a small victorian seaside town..

found a proper old fashioned woody kinda pub that served proper cider..

saw a poster advertisin "Folk Night" later that evening..

went out for a meal in a more modern pub

which on the same night was holding an 'acoustic night'

young local btec performance arts kids mainly doing grunge favourites
in an acoustic stylee..

So in the west country local public transport is non existant shite service..

last bus was befor 8 pm..

thought F@ck it.. its our anniversary...

theres a proper old victorian pub that serves real cider on draught
with a folk club tonoght..

f@ck it.. we'll go there and book an expensive taxi back home..


so went to 'traditional' pub folk night..

DISASTER ALERT !!!

there was one good old fella with a violin who managed to sneak in
the odd folk trad song

but mostly it was middle aged middle class twats in white shirts
with expensive acoustic guitars
poncifying away doing beatles songs..


so b@llocks.. i got cidered up..

and complained about hte lack of advertised 'folk music'

next morning i woke up with vague memory of being barred from thagt pub...
