I used to work part time in a working men's club when I was a young lad in the 80'sand 90's it was some spot.   Every Saturday we'd do big pots of bodice and crobeens, lads used be mad for them.  

if you come this side of the river mate have a look at the three horse shoes in frampton on Severn, it's like walking in someone's house, most evenings the men play guitars and the women sing there is

Wouldnt matter what my local laid on , most of the regulars are to engrossed in betting on there mobiles.. The art of conersations dead sadly

Think the spit and sawdust bars are gone really where if you stood in one place to long the soles of you shoes started to stick to the floor, or a ferret running around the bar cos somebody got bit and dropped it. Few proper pubs around but most you have to book, most are eating houses.

 

Forest of Dean Redneck comment on carrot crunching accent made me laugh, and reminded me of when i was in a bar in Ireland near Cork and two old ladies keep asking me to say Ambrosia cream rice from the advert.

I see there trying to get the first one a community pub theres one near me one of the first in the country "The TallyHo" at Littlehempston. Great success would have been worth buying in but never thought about it at the time. The was three good pubs in Haverfordwest in a square where three roads meet one on each corner, if my memory severs me right it was over 45 years ago though. Very welcoming except one night walk to the square full of people over flow from the pubs singing and shouting in Welsh just push my way through nodding never said a word and nearly craping myself and went back to my digs.

No it was kind of Welsh national language or something like that the locals told me nobody was talking English. Also the local people don't sound Welsh out there they sound more like west country. I think they told me they call it little England is that right?

Used to go in there with Dave Evans huntsman with the hunsley beacon beagles, good pub. Some good boozers in that neck of the woods, still like nellies (white horse in beverley) worth a visit £2 a pint and gas lamps in the bars great crowd in there.
