I got barred from a pub once. It was back in the days when pints were 1p cheaper in the tap room. Bought a pint there then saw my mates in the lounge, so moved there. The landlord demanded 1p, I refused. He then barred me for life. I thought that was a bit extreme. Got my own back though, shagged his daughter a couple of weeks later.

I remember when Aussie wine at a party meant a bottle grabbed when leaving Yates' at closing time.Aussie wine now is a totally different beast !

He might have been grateful if she looked like the back end of a Glasgow tram.I'm sure you'll say she didn't,but beer goggles can be very effective.😁

Yates, man when did they vanish? I'm led to believe that the Dudley one was the last to go.Don't know when & how true that is.

I also read it with the accent.
Isn't that the law?

Yates went bust in 2011 and were brought out by stonegate.
There is still a Yates in Southampton.

I have to say this. While there are lots of chavs and scallies, and folk who think nothing of going out to buy fags in their onesies in my home town of Manchester, some Birmingham folk put them to shame, in terms of strangeness. I can't put my finger on it exactly, it's difficult to describe, but Barmouth during school holiday week was more like a zoo than a holiday resort.
Hopefully, in time, I'll be able to articulate myself better on this matter.
