Alan,
Is that The George in Southwark - the most beautiful pub in the world?
Used to go there regularly - in those days it was staffed by a lovely Australian girl doing The Grand Tour.
I commented one night what a beautiful pub it was and received the reply "It's like working in a ******* museum".
We were in there with the late Tom Munnelly and his wife Annette; when he asked for a "glass" (common in Ireland for a half-pint) she replied "we don't serve it in ******* buckets love" - good times!
