Only ever really drank in The British Queen (by WHL Station but has closed now), The Corner Pin (pub on the corner by the Park Lane end), The Bell and Hare (next to the Corner Pin), The Bricklayers Arms and The Bill Nicholson.
[cite]Posted By: Chirpy Red[/cite]Saw them down the Tramshed in the 80's, they used to get the whole crowd to shout "Bollocks!", even my Nan joined in.
Did that when I saw them, and I had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder Chirps, sitting here with a big smile on my face now.
We've all taken the pish out of them over the years for various reasons but no doubting their impact on English music in lots of ways.
Was sad to hear about Dave's wife's passing and the effect it's had on him but it was heartwarming listening to Chas talking so fondly about him on the radio yesterday.

I'm just not emotionally ready for this thread to disappear just yet.
Today I rediscovered Ain't No Pleasing You after 25 years, and it's jsut the most bloody beautiful piece of work. Especially those strings.... It knocks anything Madness tried to do in the same vein into a tin hat. Turns me straight back into a 14 year old trying to get my Gran out of the Lord Herbert before she swings for someone, generally Fishy Bill the Woolwich Arsenal station black cab driver who never forgave her for her Dalmatian biting him in the privates.
Some songs just put you straight back there.
And us trying to get back into the second division as well.
Can't you lot see a PR excercise when you see one. Give it a few months then Dave will return in a series of comeback performances around the Gala bingo circuit. Then on to the O2 ,millenium stadium then Madison square Gardens.
seen it all before.
Be'ave yourself grandad or won't be comin' dahn t'margit.
