Think they are all moved over now.
If there are any stray ones I missed just point them out and I'll move them.

Was Keithy a male nurse by any chance? My mum used to talk about him, she was never one for going into town and was a nurse so that's the only link I can think of?

| Quote: John Willy Higson "The Globe pub stood at right angles to the Smiths Arms
Next door on the corner of Ings Road was the Harlequin Cafe
Between the two pubs was the gate to the mill Patons & Baldwins or Hayley's can't remember ...'"
Don't forget the stone horse trough just outside too.

My granny served those steak canadians right up until the day she died; if anyone gave her any gyp, she'd bray em over the knuckles with a metal spatula.

The drink was Australian white wine although it was red and a doc was a double and a sample a single and yes it was awful -tasted like sherry to me but we always had a couple

That was a ritual every Friday and Saturday night - god knows why; you'd to queue up like you were collecting your pension from the post office, and when you got it, it was chuffin rank.
I remember puking one straight back up in the doorway of Peter Jones just across the road - it was a proper funny colour.

Worked at the intercon from late 1970 till 72 when I met the wife, always went down into the moonraker for an hour to chill out before having the pleasure of meeting those charming and friendly people that frequented the place
