Ah memories: thread drift, but who cares?
I also went (not frequently!) to The Grapes, The Prospect, The Angel.
But more likely to frequent the students union bar or the pubs around the hospital: The Good Samaritan ("The Sammy"), The Grave Maurice ("The chapel" if you were talking in code in front of the patients!), The Blind Beggar (notoriously associated with the Krays).

And Dave, that is also my favourite stanza from "Sweet Thames"!

I woz there from 1964-1970, and we did still have pedal cycles to go out to do district maternity deliveries with the midwives during our obs/gynae attachment!
