Reading this thread has brought back some memories for me, on trips to leeds in the early 80's with hull we often used to get to gaping goose well early so we could sink a fair few tetley bitters before game, was only in my late teens at the time and probably youngest on the bus but you certainly had to be quick out the blocks off the bus to beat the old timers to the bar!! Totally agree with comments about carlsberg, !!.

| Ah The Myrtle, I was a Bay Horse man myself.
And you'll kick yourself when I tell you this but The Woodman in Headingley was always a youth club in the 1970s as was upstairs in The Oak, I had my first illegal pint in The Oak and wore an RAF trench coat which still had some badges on it in a belief that it would make me look older, I needn't have bothered as there were kids in there getting served from the form below us at school  |

And last but not least, to all those people that wrote this team off, to all those people that criticized this team...tonight's for you, thank you.
I'll tell you this now, of all the sportsmen I have ever seen, this guy is the most impressive. Clare Balding 6/10/12:37727.jpg |

I was at the launch of a hand pulled Tetleys lager in the early 1980's, i have never been a lager drinker, but this stuff was an amazing Summer drink,( or was it the free bar made it taste so sweet), can't for the life of me remember what it was called.. Must have lasted a few weeks before being abandoned. I also seem to remember a Tetleys Ruby(?)...was that a seasonal brew?

Don't worry about avoiding temptation.
As you grow older, it will avoid you!

Yes we later used the Bay Horse after we leant to drink beer. I was brought up a very short walk from the New Inn (BYB) and "Moorhouses" in the good old tramcar days, so the Woodman and Three Horse Shoes were too close to home for underage sessions.
However my taste for Haddock n Chips has never waivered from being cooked in beef dripping á lá Bryans and I remember it when the Blacksmith was next door and the upstairs restaurant only had about 4 tables.

my first time to be served in a pub was the christmas of 1962 I was 15,and I had left school the previous Easter.I was working as an apprentice painter and decorator A,M youngs and son LTD chapel Allerton,any we were working at a tailoring factory in call lane opposite THE WHITE SWAN[MUCKY DUCK]so christmas eve we finished at lunchtime and I followed the blokes into the pub,one bloke said "good god lad you dont look 14 never mind 15"any way I managed about
2 and 1/2 pints of mild and went to the loo at the back outside ,nearly fell down the open cellar someone got hold of me and took me back in.going home I had to lock myself in the corn exchange toilet till I sobered up.
I remember the late Denis Goodwin taking over that pub a couple of years later

I remember that.
I had a pint of it at the White Cross in Guiseley ... at least I think it was there.
It was a very short-lived experiment, bitter drinkers didn't like it because it the flavour was like a lager ... and "lager" drinkers didn't like it because it wasn't ice-cold or fizzy.
Personally, I didn't mind it that much but it was a bit too light.
I can't remember what it was called either.
Unless it was actually called White Cross and I tried it somewhere else ...  |
